Abstract
The self-assembly behaviors of the mixtures composed of linear and cyclic AB diblock copolymers in A-selective solvents are investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation results indicate that a typical morphological transition of the aggregate from sphere to cylinder, to lamella, and then to vesicle can be achieved via solely adjusting the molar fraction of the cyclic diblock copolymers in the mixture. Furthermore, the simulation results show that under the condition that the pure cyclic and linear diblock copolymers can both form vesicles, the structure characteristics (e.g., the inner radius and hydrophobic membrane thickness of the vesicle) and the formation pathway of the vesicles formed by the mixtures can also be regulated via solely changing the molar fraction of the cyclic diblock copolymers in the mixture. It is worth noting that the inner radius of the vesicle can be considerably increased by increasing the molar fraction of the cyclic diblock copolymers in the mixture, which results in a remarkable increase in the inner capacity of the vesicle. This phenomenon has a unique significance in the field of drug delivery. Our simulation works can provide a new approach to the preparation of polymer materials with novel properties and functions.

Abstract
Cyclic polymers display unique physicochemical and biological properties. However, their development is often limited by their challenging preparation. In this work, we present a simple route to cyclic poly(α-peptoids) from N-alkylated-N-carboxyanhydrides (NNCA) using LiHMDS promoted ring-expansion polymerization (REP) in DMF. This new method allows the unprecedented use of lysine-like monomers in REP to design bioactive macrocycles bearing pharmaceutical potential against Clostridioides difficile, a bacterium responsible for nosocomial infections.

Abstract
Fabrication of cyclic graft (cg) copolymer-based polymeric prodrugs by conjugation of drug molecules to cg copolymers via a dynamic covalent bond capable of responding to biorelevant signals integrates simultaneously the merits of cg copolymers and polymeric prodrugs for enhanced stability of nanocarriers and precise modulation of drug release kinetics. To completely eliminate the compromised drug conjugation efficiency due to the steric hindrance of hydrophilic grafts, it will be useful to develop cg polymeric prodrugs with heterogeneous grafts composed of hydrophilic polymers and drug species, respectively. For this purpose, we reported in this study the synthesis of cyclic graft polymeric prodrugs with heterogeneous grafts of hydrophilic oligo (ethylene glycol) (OEG) and reducibly conjugated camptothecin (CPT), cg-poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether methacrylate)-b-poly((2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-disulfide link-camptothecin) (cg-P(OEGMA)-b-P(HEMA-SS-CPT), cg-prodrugs), via an integrated strategy of a previously reported diblock copolymer-based template and post-polymerization intermolecular click conjugation of a reducible CPT prodrug. The micelles self-assembled from cg-prodrugs on one hand had sufficient salt stability due to the branched cg structure, and on the other hand showed a reduction-triggered cleavage of the disulfide link for a promoted CPT release. Most importantly, we uncovered two interesting phenomena of the cg-based polymeric prodrugs as delivery vehicles: (i) the dimensions of both self-assemblies formed by the cg and bottlegraft (bg) polymers depend substantially on the molecular size of the cg and bg polymers likely due to the steric hindrance of the grafted structures of the cg and bg molecules and relatively low aggregation number of the self-assembled structures, and (ii) cg-prodrug-based micelles exhibited greater in vitro cytotoxicity against cancer cells despite the lower drug loading content (DLC) than the bg-based analogues, which results primarily from the faster reduction-triggered degradation and drug release as well as the greater cellular uptake efficiency of the former micelle prodrugs. Taken together, the developed cg-prodrugs provide great potential for chemotherapy, and the aforementioned interesting results will definitely inspire more upcoming studies on the future design and development of novel cg polymers for biomedical applications.

Abstract
The self-assembly of a cyclic AB copolymer system with relatively long A blocks and short B blocks in B-selective solvents is investigated using a simulated annealing method. By investigating the effect of the lengths and solubilities of A and B blocks (N A and N B, εAS and εBS), the incompatibility between A and B blocks (εAB), as well as the polymer concentration (C p) and the conditions for the formation of multicompartment vesicles in cyclic diblock copolymer solutions, is predicted. The phase diagrams in terms of N B, εAS, and C p are constructed. The mechanism of the morphological transition is elucidated. It is shown that for cyclic copolymers the change in the above factors relating to the polymer and solvent properties all can lead to the transition from simple vesicles to multicompartment vesicles, but two different transition mechanisms are revealed. In addition, our simulations demonstrate that the self-assembly of cyclic copolymers could provide a powerful strategy for regulating the compartment number and the wall thickness of the multicompartment vesicles by adjusting the block solubilities and block lengths, respectively. These findings will facilitate the application of multicompartment architectures in cell mimicry, drug delivery, and nanoreactors.

Abstract
This perspective addresses the development of polymer field theory for predicting the equilibrium phase behavior of block polymer melts. The approach is tailored to the high-molecular-weight limit, where universality reduces all systems to the standard Gaussian chain model, an incompressible melt of elastic threads interacting by contact forces. Using mathematical identities, this particle-based version of the model is converted to an equivalent field-based version that depends on fields rather than particle coordinates. The statistical mechanics of the field-based model is typically solved using the saddle-point approximation of self-consistent field theory (SCFT), which equates to mean field theory, but it can also be evaluated using field theoretic simulations (FTS). While SCFT has matured into one of the most successful theories in soft condensed matter, FTS are still in its infancy. The two main obstacles of FTS are the high computational cost and the occurrence of an ultraviolet divergence, but fortunately there has been recent groundbreaking progress on both fronts. As such, FTS are now well poised to become the method of choice for predicting fluctuation corrections to mean field theory.

Abstract
AbstractThe self-assembly of Janus ring polymers is studied via a coarse-grained molecular dynamics employing a bead spring model including bending rigidity contributions to the Hamiltonian. We examine the formation and the morphology of amphiphilicity-driven clusters in the system using the number density ρN, the temperature T, the fraction of solvophobic monomers α, and the stiffness of the polymer rings κ as control parameters. We present a quantitative analysis of several characteristics for the formed clusters of Janus rings. Measured quantities include the distribution of the cluster size MC and the shape of the clusters in the form of the prolate/oblate factor Q and shape factors sf. We demonstrate Janus rings form polymorphic micelles that vary from a spherical shape, akin to that known for linear block copolymers, to a novel type of toroidal shape, and we highlight the role played by the key physical parameters leading to the stabilization of such structures.

Abstract
The self-assembly behaviors of two block copolymers with the same chain length but different chain architectures (cyclic AB, linear ABA) in B-selective solvents are investigated using Monte Carlo simulations. A morphological transition sequence, from spherical micelles to cylindrical micelles, to vesicles and then to multicompartment vesicles, is observed for both copolymer systems when the interaction between the solvophobic A-block and the solvent is increased. In particular, toroidal micelles could be formed in triblock systems due to the presence of the bridging chains at the parameter region between cylindrical micelles and vesicles whereas disklike micelles are formed in cyclic systems. The simulation results demonstrated that the architecture of block copolymers could be used to regulate the structural characteristics and thermal stability of these self-assembled aggregates.

Abstract
Nanosized polymeric Janus particles (NPJPs) have important applications in a variety of theoretical and practical research fields. However, the methods that are versatile and can prepare NPJPs highly efficiently are very limited. Herein, we reported a two-step thermodynamically controlled preparation of NPJPs with a high yield using a diblock copolymer as the precursor. At the first step, A-b-B coassembled in the solution with a partner diblock copolymer C-b-B to form the mixed shell micelles (MSMs) with B core and A/C mixed shell. Then, intramicellarly covalently cross-linking the A block chains resulted in the complete phase separation of A and C chains in the mixed shell, leading to the direct conversion of the MSMs into NPJPs. The first step, diblock copolymer micellization, is known as a thermodynamically controlled process, and we also made the second step, conversion from MSMs to NPJPs, be thermodynamically controlled due to the application of covalent cross-linking. As the result, the conversion efficiency is close to 100%. Besides, it was further confirmed that the method can be applied to different systems and used to tune the Janus balance. Therefore, this conversion should be very significant for the fabrication and application of the NPJPs.

Abstract
Two well-defined cyclic triblock terpolymers, missing pieces of the terpolymer morphology puzzle, consisting of poly(isoprene), polystyrene, and poly(2-vinylpyridine), were synthesized by combining the Glaser coupling reaction with anionic polymerization. An α,ω-dihydroxy linear triblock terpolymer (OH-PI1,4-b-PS-b-P2VP-OH) was first synthesized followed by transformation of the OH to alkyne groups by esterification with pentynoic acid and cyclization by Glaser coupling. The size exclusion chromatography (SEC) trace of the linear terpolymer precursor was shifted to lower elution time after cyclization, indicating the successful synthesis of the cyclic terpolymer. Additionally, the SEC trace of the cyclic terpolymer produced, after cleavage of the ester groups, shifted again practically to the position corresponding to the linear precursor. The first exploratory results on morphology showed the tremendous influence of the cyclic structure on the morphology of terpolymers.

Abstract
Host-stabilized charge transfer (HSCT) complex based on cucurbit[8]uril has been widely used in building novel supramolecular structures, which could further self-assemble into nano-objects. High stability of the HSCT interaction during the assembly process is always assumed or defaulted. However, the stability during self-assembly has never been well characterized in previous studies. In this work, we realized cyclization of linear PNIPAM by CB[8]-based HSCT interaction first. And then we found unexpectedly that during the heating-induced self-assembly of the cyclic PNIPAM, dissociation of the HSCT interaction took place. In this process, charged CB[8] complex was released from the aggregates of the cyclic polymer to solution, and it could be recaptured by newly added guest molecules. This HSCT dissociation was driven by the incompatibility of the hydrophobicity of the PNIPAM aggregates and the cationic nature of the HSCT complex. To the best of our knowledge, this assembly induced dissociation phenomenon has not been reported in literature.

Abstract
The structural characteristics of aqueous micelles composed of amphiphilic cyclic poly(n-butyl acrylate-b-ethylene oxide) (cyclic PBA-b-PEO) or a linear analogue (i.e., linear poly(n-butyl acrylate-b-ethylene oxide-b-n-butyl acrylate) (linear PBA-b-PEO-b-PBA)) were examined for the first time using synchrotron X-ray scattering techniques and quantitative data analysis. The scattering data were analyzed using a variety of methodologies in a comprehensive complementary manner. These analyses provided details of the structural information about the micelles. Both micelles were found to consist of a core and a fuzzy shell; however, the cyclic block copolymer had a strong tendency to form micelles with core and shell parts that were more compact and dense than the corresponding parts of the linear block copolymer micelles. The PBA block of the cyclic copolymer was found to form a hydrophobic core with a density that exceeded the density of the homopolymer in the bulk state. The structural differences originated primarily from the topological difference between the cyclic and linear block copolymers. The elimination of the chain end groups (which introduced entropy and increased the excess excluded volume) from the amphiphilic block copolymer yielded more stable dense micelles in solution.
