摘要
Spherical micelles of a series of poly(styrene-block-(2,5-bis[4-methoxyphenyl]oxycarbonyl)styrene) (PS-b-PMPCS) rod-coil diblock copolymers in a selective solvent can organize into large mono-layered films with a well-ordered hexagonal packing of the spheres after solvent evaporation. Organized domains in the spherical micelle film were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The core-shell structure of the spherical micelle remained after solvent evaporation. The micelle diameter in the ordered film as observed by TEM and AFM agree. The size of the spherical micelles can be controlled by the length of PMPCS when the length of the PS is fixed. The sphere diameters were varied from several tens of nanometers to more than one hundred nanometers. Solutions of smaller micelle spheres formed less ordered films than those from larger micelle particles. Additionally, monolayer films of cylindrical worm-like micelles were also prepared. Those cylindrical micelles were observed to be end-capped by spherical micelles. The monolayer micelle film from the largest spherical micelles appeared red when observed in optical microscopy in the reflection mode. A broad adsorption peak with a maximum adsorption wavelength of 545 nm was observed via UV-Vis spectroscopy. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
