The self-assembly of block copolymers (BCPs) in the presence of crystallization as the
second driving force is reviewed, for BCPs in the bulk, thin films, single crystals and micelles …

The self‐assembly of copolymers containing crystallizable blocks in solution has received
increasing attention in the past few years. Various strategies including crystallization‐driven …

Analyzing and understanding the structure and morphology of crystalline polymers has been
and remains to be a major challenge. Some of the issues have resisted analyses for …

In water, amphiphilic block copolymers (BCPs) can self-assemble into various micelle
structures depicting curved liquid/liquid interface. Crystallization, which is incommensurate …

The fabrication of dynamic, transformable biomaterials that respond to environmental cues
represents a significant step forward in the development of synthetic materials that rival their …

Polymer single crystals and correlated crystalline structures are reviewed by emphasizing
the last 10–20 years of research on fundamental concepts, single crystal engineering, and …

In the present work, crystallization-driven coassembly of micrometric polymer single crystals
and nanometric block copolymer micelles was achieved. The hybrid single crystals are first …

Two hydrogen (H)-bond donors, phenol and l-threonine, were added into the aqueous
solutions containing crystalline micelles of a poly (ε-caprolactone)-b-poly (ethylene …

Crystalline/ionic liquid crystalline block copolymers (BCPs) with various compositions have
been successfully prepared by sequential reactions. The effect of corona liquid crystalline …

One of the fundamental laws in crystallization is translational symmetry, which accounts for
the profound shapes observed in natural mineral crystals and snowflakes. Herein, we report …
