Networking of block copolymer nanoassemblies via digital light processing four-dimensional printing for programmable actuation by Pan, Houwen Matthew, Sarkar, Jit, Goto, Atsushi

“…Instead of using random copolymers, homopolymers, or natural polymers, this paper reports the first use of amphiphilic, photocurable, and pH-responsive block copolymer (BCP) nanoassemblies in digital light processing (DLP) 4D printing to fabricate smart and programmable soft actuators. …”

Reversible complexation mediated living radical polymerization using tetraalkylammonium chloride catalysts by Han, Shuaiyuan, Zheng, Yichao, Sarkar, Jit, Niino, Hiroshi, Chatani, Shunsuke, Goto, Atsushi

“…Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium chloride is further exploited to other methacrylates and yields low-dispersity block copolymers. The advantages of the chloride salt catalysts are wide monomer scope, good livingness, accessibility to block copolymers, and good solubility in organic media. …”

Synthesis of nano-capsules via aqueous emulsion RCMP-PISA and encapsulation by Sarkar, Jit, Jackson, Alexander W., van Herk, Alexander M., Goto, Atsushi

“…Spheres and vesicles were generated depending on the degrees of polymerization of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments in the block copolymers. The spheres and vesicles were crosslinked using a divinyl monomer (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA)) as a co-monomer of MMA in situ during the polymerization. …”
