Contents:
1. An Introduction to Block Copolymer Applications: State-of-the-art and Future Developments -- 2. Guidelines for Synthesizing Block Copolymers -- 3. Block Copolymer Vesicles -- 4. Block Copolymer Micelles for Drug Delivery in Nanoscience -- 5. Stimuli-responsive Block Copolymer Assemblies -- 6. Self-assembly of Linear Polypeptide-based Block Copolymers -- 7. Synthesis, Self-assembly and Applications of Polyferrocenylsilane (PFS) Block Copolymers -- 8. Supramolecular Block Polymers Containing Metal-Ligand Binding Sites: From Synthesis to Properties -- 9. Methods for the Alignment and the Large-scale Ordering of Block Copolymer Morphologies -- 10. Block Copolymer Nanofibers and Nanotubes -- 11. Nanostructured Carbons from Block Coplymers -- 12. Block Copolymers at Interfaces -- 13. Block Copolymers as Templates for the Generation of Mesostructured Inorganic Materials -- 14. Mesostructured Polymers-Inorganic Hybrid Materials from Blocked Macromolecular Architectures and Nanoparticles -- 15. Block Ionomers for Fuel Cell Application -- 16. Structure, Properties and Applications of Crystallizable ABA and ABC Triblock Copolymers with Hydrogenated Polybutadiene Blocks -- 17. Basic Understanding of Phase Behavior and Structure of Silicone Block Copolymers and Surfactant-Block Copolymer Mixtures -- Subject Index.
Summary: This first book to take a detailed look at one of the key focal points where nanotechnology and polymers meet provides both an introductory view for beginners as well as in-depth knowledge for specialists in the various research areas involved. It investigates all types of application for block copolymers: as tools for fabricating other nanomaterials, as structural components in hybrid materials and nanocomposites, and as functional materials. The multidisciplinary approach covers all stages from chemical synthesis and characterization, presenting applications from physics and chemistry to biology and medicine, such as micro- and nanolithography, membranes, optical labeling, drug delivery, as well as sensory and analytical uses.
