“Soldier–Sergeant–Soldier” triblock copolymers: revealing the folded structure of single-chain polymeric nanoparticles

Abstract

“Soldiers–Sergeant–Soldiers” experiments performed on single-chain polymeric nanoparticles (SCPNs) with an ABA-type triblock architecture carrying chiral and achiral benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides (BTAs) in different blocks reveal that the BTAs form segregated, multiple stacks in a single SCPN.
