Abstract :
[en] The self-assembly of amphiphilic copolymers consisting of poly( N, N-dimethylamino-2-ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and poly(-caprolactone) (PCL) segments arranged in graft and linear diblock architectures was investigated in this work by means of dynamic light scattering (DLS) in aqueous solution and by atomic force microscopy (AFM) on thin deposits. The solid-state deposits of the micelles were generated by a 'freeze-drying' technique that preserves the initial micelle morphology in solution. A comparison between the morphological properties of graft copolymers with corresponding diblock copolymers was established to demonstrate the effect of the copolymer architecture on the micelle structure and organization.
