Nanophotonics . 2024 Jun; 13(14):2453-2467. PMID: 38836102
We provide a simple method that enables readily acquired experimental data to be used to predict whether or not a candidate molecular material may exhibit strong coupling. Specifically, we explore...

McBride R, Geneste E, Xie A, Ryan A, Miller J, Blanazs A, et al.
Macromolecules . 2024 Mar; 57(5):2432-2445. PMID: 38495382
We report a new one-pot low-viscosity synthetic route to high molecular weight non-ionic water-soluble polymers based on polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). The RAFT aqueous dispersion polymerization of -acryloylmorpholine (NAM) is conducted...

Deane O, Mandrelier P, Musa O, Jamali M, Fielding L, Armes S
Chem Mater . 2024 Mar; 36(4):2061-2075. PMID: 38435050
Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous emulsion polymerization is used to prepare well-defined ABCB tetrablock copolymer nanoparticles via sequential monomer addition at 30 °C. The A block comprises water-soluble poly(2-(-acryloyloxy)ethyl...

Astier S, Johnson E, Norvilaite O, Varlas S, Brotherton E, Sanderson G, et al.
Langmuir . 2024 Feb; PMID: 38320303
Sterically stabilized diblock copolymer nanoparticles with a well-defined spherical morphology and tunable diameter were prepared by RAFT aqueous emulsion polymerization of benzyl methacrylate at 70 °C. The steric stabilizer precursor...

Langmuir . 2024 Feb; PMID: 38316052
A poly(glycerol monomethacrylate) (PGMA) precursor was chain-extended with 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous emulsion polymerization. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies confirmed the formation of well-defined...

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces . 2023 Nov; 15(46):54039-54049. PMID: 37944021
Phenanthrene is the simplest example of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). Herein, we exploit its relatively low melting point (101 °C) to prepare microparticles from molten phenanthrene droplets by conducting...
