摘要
Stimuli-responsive polymers and assemblies are viable candidates for the so-called "smart" materials. In this communication, we report a new class of amphiphilic homopolymers that forms micelle-like structures in polar solvents and inverted micelle-like structures in apolar solvents. We demonstrate that these superstructures are the result of the changes in the molecular-level conformations in the monomer. Copyright © 2004 American Chemical Society.
