Abstract

Biocompatible and dual-responsive micelles were fabricated from a cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) connected amphiphilic linear-hyperbranched polymer complex. After addition of adamantaneamine or Na2S2O4, the micelles became larger and exhibited triggered-release of hydrophobic coumarin 102 because of the CB[8]-based host–guest interaction.
