Thermally Induced Multimicellar-Aggregate-to-Vesicle Transition for a Dentritic Starch Ester

摘要

What a transition! A fast, temperature-induced transition from multimicellar aggregates to vesicles has been presented for a dentritic starch ester decorated with a temperature-sensitive group. The large micelles are multimicellar aggregates composed of unimolecular micelle units. The morphology transition is due to the reorganization of unimolecular micelles during a long-term heating process.
