Nanoemulsion-like Polymersomes for Nanoreactors
… quantitative catalyst recovery The issues in the nanoreactor system and the mechanism of the phase transfer in the biphasic system are discussed. First, a new reversible reaction process with the thermo-responsive shuttling of the IL-filled polymersomes between the phases was designed. In …

Synthesis and study of the micellization behavior of a dual temperature- and pH-responsive PAA-b-PNIPAM block copolymer
… such as a drug delivery system, surfactants, or nanoreactor. Many studies have been done to optimize the performance of these copolymers. In this thesis work, nine dual temperature- and pH-responsive poly(acrylic acid-block-N-isopropylacrylamide) (PAA-b-PNIPAM) diblock copolymers with different …

Functional Materials From Self-Assembled Macrocycles
… into columns and could serve as a `nanoreactor' to form host:guest complex with small molecules such as methylstyrene, divinylbenzene and iodine; a larger macrocycle with phenylethynylene pyridine space has also been synthesized as a precursor for Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) or …

SELF-ASSEMBLY, DEFORMATION, AND DISASSEMBLY OF SOFT MATERIALS
… (spherical) viruses serve as aggregated nanoreactors. These variably well-ordered nanoreactor lattices demonstrably enhance catalytic activity due to virus porosity. We also investigate the again predominantly electrostatic mechanisms underlying the deformation of soft nanoparticles in …

A computational study of DNA four-way junctions and their significance to DNA nanotechnology
… and catalytic function of a DNA tweezer-actuated nanoreactor. The analyses presented here show that rational redesign of the four-way junctions in the device enables the tweezers to be more completely and uniformly closed, while the sequence-level design strategies explored in this study provide …

Cucurbiturils, tetrahedral capsules, and porous systems: synthesis, functionalization, and applications
… a tetrahedral capsule was exploited as a nanoreactor for the realization of dehydration reactions in water for synthesis of nitrones. During the second year a new supramolecular system was developed capable of adsorbing a significant amount of carbon dioxide. This system was developed …

Weak polyacid brushes : synthesis, swelling behavior, complex formation and micropatterning
… novel materials for drug delivery, biosensor or nanoreactor applications which rely on the fact that many proteins bind to such systems under preservation of their natural structure.
