This paper reviews the advances during the last decade in the synthesis and chemical
structures of the important class of charged polymers that bear quaternary ammonium …

This review summarizes mostly the literature data accumulated during the last decade on
betaine-type polyampholytes. Synthetic pathways to polybetaines consisting of radical …

This review draws a rather comprehensive picture of how Suzuki polycondensation was
discovered in 1989 and how it was subsequently developed into the most powerful …

Phase separation of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) between the polyacid (sodium salt)
and polybase (hydrochloride) of poly (acrylic acid)(PAA) and poly (allylamine)(PAH) …

This review summarizes recent advances in the design and synthesis of novel complex
polymers with (meth) acrylic acid segments using various living and controlled …

The overview of the published data on a new class of polyelectrolytes—the so-called
polymeric ionic liquids or poly (ionic liquid) s—is presented. The peculiarities of their …

We report the synthesis of star‐shaped poly (acrylic acid)(PAA), with 5, 8, and 21 arms, by
atom transfer radical polymerization of tert‐butyl acrylate. We employ the core‐first approach …

Polyelectrolyte block copolymers form micelles and vesicles in aqueous solutions. Micelle
formation and micellar structure depends on various parameters like block lengths, salt …

The two-gradient version of the Scheutjens− Fleer self-consistent-field (SF-SCF) approach is
employed for the analysis of the average conformations of side chains and corresponding …

We present a scaling theory for the equilibrium conformations of amphiphilic comblike (graft-
) copolymer in dilute solution. We examine intramolecular self-assembly upon inferior …
