DOI: 10.1002/marc.202100909
Abstract: Since the discovery of polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA), convenient synthesis of concentrated block copolymer nano-assemblies dispersed in solvent has been achieved. Now, application of block copolymer nano-assemblies should be paid more attention. In this study, corona-cross-linked… read more here.
