Kinetic Control of Aggregation Shape in Micellar Self-Assembly

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

The first steps towards top-down morphology control in micellar self-assembly are introduced. Kinetically stable micelles are formed from block copolymers (BCPs) using continuous flow techniques by turbulent mixing of water with a THF solution of polymers. In this way, particle shape and size can be altered from spheres to ellipsoids solely via tuning of mixing parameters from a single BCP.
