To achieve the synthesis of desired miktoarm star polymers, acetyl protected poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) thiols (M-n = 550 and 2000 g mol(-1)) were utilized to generate A(3)-type of homoarm star polymers through an in situ protective group removal and a subsequent thiol-epoxy ``click'' reaction with a tris-epoxide core viz. 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane triglycidyl ether. The secondary hydroxyl groups generated adjacent to the core upon the thiol-epoxy reaction were esterified with alpha-bromoisobutyryl bromide to install atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiating sites. ATRP of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) using the three-arm star PEG polymer fitted with ATRP initiating sites adjacent to the core afforded A(3)B(3)-type of double hydrophilic (PEG)(3)[poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)] (PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymers. Furthermore, the generated hydroxyl groups were directly used as initiator for ring-opening polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone to prepare A(3)B(3)-type of amphiphilic (PEG)(3)[poly(epsilon-caprolactone)](3) miktoarm star polymers. The double hydrophilic (PEG)(3)(PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymers showed lower critical solution temperature around 34 degrees C. The preliminary transmission electron microscopy analysis indicated formation of self-assembly of (PEG)(3)(PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymer in aqueous solution. (c) 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

The QOP-BOP copolymer exhibited specific capacitance (SC) of 305 F g(-1) at the current density of 2 A g(-1) and 88% retention of its initial specific capacitance after 1000 cycles, which resulted in good cyclic stability. This work establishes the first use of thiophene integrated with quinoxaline-benzimidazole units for energy storage applications and provides strategies for further developments in the performance of such conjugated materials. Cyclic voltammetry, charge-discharge and electrochemical impedance techniques were used to evaluate the electrochemical parameters, which demonstrated their potential in future energy storage devices.&lt;/p&gt;

New partially bio-based (co) poly(ether sulfone) s bearing pendant furyl groups were synthesized via aromatic nucleophilic substitution polycondensation of BPF and various mixtures of BPF and bisphenol-A with bis(4-fluorophenyl) sulfone in N, N-dimethylacetamide as a solvent. (Co) poly(ether sulfone) s showed inherent viscosities in the range 0.92-1.47 dL g(-1) and number average molecular weights ((M-n) over bar), obtained from GPC, were in the range 91 300-131 000 g mol(-1). (Co) poly(ether sulfone) s could be cast into tough, transparent and flexible films from chloroform solutions. (Co)poly(ether sulfone)s showed 10% weight loss in the temperature range 431-481 degrees C and DSC showed T-g in the range 179-190 degrees C. Tensile strength, Young's modulus and elongation at break, obtained from tensile testing of (co) poly(ether sulfone) s containing pendant furyl groups, were in the range 76.7-83.8 MPa, 1.02-1.18 GPa and 21.4-89.7%, respectively. Most interestingly, pendant furyl groups in (co) poly(ether sulfone) s provide reactive sites for click modification and cross-linking via Diels-Alder reaction with maleimides and bismaleimides, respectively. Crosslinked (co) poly(ether sulfone) was prepared via Diels-Alder reaction of a representative (co) poly(ether sulfone) containing pendant furyl groups with 1,1'-(methylenedi-1,4-phenylene) bismaleimide (BMI) at 60 degrees C. The formation of cross-linked poly(ether sulfone) was demonstrated by gelation tests, solubility tests and DSC. The cross-linked copoly(ether sulfone) prepared using BMI showed enhanced tensile strength and Young's modulus compared to parent copoly(ether sulfone) and was recycled two times with retention of mechanical properties.&lt;/p&gt;

Preparation of a pre-defined polymer architecture is a key challenge to a researcher. The present article describes the recent development in Polymerization Induced Self-Assembly (PISA) to synthesize polymeric nanoparticles with pre-defined morphology and precise control over size and shape. This methodology has become a potential strategy for the synthesis of various block copolymer nano-objects. The PISA strategy produces core-shell polymeric nanoparticles with a wide scope of morphologies including spheres, worms, rods, and vesicles. A few parameters including the degree of polymerization, core-forming monomers, macro-CTA and solid content of the final product are precisely employed for the PISA procedure to accomplish the ideal size and shape. PISA opens a new avenue for the production of polymeric nano-objects.&lt;/p&gt;
