By including polymer segments that are sensitive to three di!erent
stimuli, “schizophrenic”, triply-responsive block copolymers were
obtained. RAFT copolymerization with a boronic acid containing
monomer led to block copolymers capable of forming both
micelles and reverse micelles, with the self-assembly being
governed by the temperature, pH, and sugar concentration of the
local environment.
Title: Triply-responsive boronic acid block copolymersShowcasing research from Professor Brent Sumerlin’s
laboratory, Southern Methodist University, USA.
