Choi, et al, Star Polymer Unimicelles on Graphene Oxide Flakes, Langmuir, 2013, 29, 9761) This project aims at achieving a fundamental understanding of molecular morphology and responsive behavior of branched star-shaped macromolecules and their assembly into precisely engineered functional films. In our recent work, the properties and phase behavior of a dual responsive (to pH and temperature) star polyelectrolyte were studied using in situ small-angle neutron scattering (Figure 1a). Upon heating the core-shell stars first experience a contraction in the loose shell region, and then form limited aggregates in contrast to conventional macrophase separation (Figure 1b). In another study, the pH-sensitive star- shaped block copolymer were utilized as major component to fabricate microcapsules via layer-by-layer assembly. This microcapsules have the ability to deliver different target molecules. The organized interfacial assembly of amphiphilic star copolymers was observed on graphene oxide flakes (Figure 2d). (d)
