Synthesis of triblock copolymeric micelle based on poly (ethylene glycol) and poly (vinyl acetate) through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization

摘要

Hypothesis: Polymeric micelles are fabricated by the self-aggregation of amphiphilic polymers in aqueous medium. Amphiphilic block copolymers consist of hydrophobic and hydrophilic blocks. The hydrophilic blocks form corona, while hydrophobic blocks produce core of the micelle.
