Abstract

Robust water-swollen lamellar phases of an amphiphilic diblock copolymer were used to organize 7 nm large cerium oxide nanoparticles (NPs) from aqueous dispersions into well-ordered nanocomposites. The pH of the mixture controls the amount of nanocrystals successfully incorporated, found as high as 12 vol% of the total composite sample.
