Abstract :
[en] The triblock copolymer PS-b-P2VP-b-PEO undergoes simultaneous micellization and gelation, leading to high-storage-modulus materials that have fast responses to pH value, temperature, ionic strength, and shearing. The gel has a hierarchical structure with spherical core-shell-corona micelles, which, in turn, pack closely into an ordered cubic structure.
