Description Polystyrene-block-polyacrylic acid is a diblock copolymer.
Application Polystyrene-block-polyacrylic acid is a diblock copolymer commonly used for making polymeric vesicles (polymersomes) and other encapsulation applications.; This was generated through RAFT polymerization;and contains end-group functionalization that can be used to generate a triblock copolymer or modified for ligation. The 2-(Dodecylthiocarbonothioylthio)-2-methylpropionic acid RAFT agent CTA is especially suited for the polymerization of styrene;acrylate and acrylamide monomers.
Features And Benefits Good biocompatibility;
Properties can be easily modulated by changing the block copolymer segment sizes to suit a particular application.
