Abstract
Biobased waterborne latexes were synthesized by miniemulsion radical copolymerization of a biosourced β-myrcene (My) terpenic monomer and styrene (S). Biobased amphiphilic copolymers were designed to act as stabilizers of the initial monomer droplets and the polymer colloids dispersed in the water phase. Two types of hydrophilic polymer backbones were hydrophobically modified by terpene molecules to synthesize two series of amphiphilic copolymers with various degrees of substitution. The first series consists of poly(acrylic acid) modified with tetrahydrogeraniol moieties (PAA-g-THG) and the second series is based on the polysaccharide carboxymethylpullulan amino-functionalized with dihydromyrcenol moieties (CMP-g-(NH-DHM)). The produced waterborne latexes with diameters between 160 and 300 nm and were composed of polymers with varying glass transition temperatures (Tg, PMy = -60 °C, Tg, P(My-co-S) = -14 °C, Tg, PS = 105 °C) depending on the molar fraction of biobased β-myrcene (fMy,0 = 0, 0.43, or 1). The latexes successfully stabilized dodecane-in-water and water-in-dodecane emulsions for months at all compositions. The waterborne latexes composed of low Tg poly(β-myrcene) caused interesting different behavior during drying of the emulsions compared to polystyrene latexes.

Abstract
The distribution of the AB diblock copolymer in a phase-separating solution composed of immiscible A and B homopolymers in a common solvent has been investigated theoretically. We have utilized the mixing Gibbs energy density for the interfacial phase based on mean-field lattice theory to this four-component system. Distributions of the AB diblock copolymer in the A and B homopolymer-rich bulk phases and the interfacial region between the separating bulk phases are calculated as a function of the B-block content, degrees of polymerization of the copolymer and A and B homopolymers, as well as interaction parameters among the A and B monomer units and the solvent. The copolymer prefers to distribute more in the interfacial region rather than separating bulk phases at a higher copolymer degree of polymerization and a higher interaction parameter between A and B monomer units. The theory is also compared with Asano et al.'s experimental results [ Langmuir 2015, 31, 7488-7495] for polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene glycol) copolymer added to the phase-separating solution of polystyrene and poly(ethylene glycol) homopolymers dissolved in chloroform.

Abstract
Emulsions are mixtures of two immiscible liquids in which droplets of one are dispersed in a continuous phase of the other. The most common emulsions are oil-water systems, which have found widespread use across a number of industries, for example, in the cosmetic and food industries, and are also of advanced scientific interest. In addition, the past decade has seen a significant increase in both the design and application of nonaqueous emulsions. This has been primarily driven by developments in understanding the mechanism of effective stabilization of oil-in-oil (o/o) systems, either using block copolymers (BCPs) or solid (Pickering) particles with appropriate surface functionality. These systems, as highlighted in this review, have enabled emergent applications in areas such as pharmaceutical delivery, energy storage, and materials design (e.g., polymerization, monolith, and porous polymer synthesis). These o/o emulsions complement traditional emulsions that utilize an aqueous phase and allow the use of materials incompatible with water. We assess recent advances in the preparation and stabilization of o/o emulsions, focusing on the identity of the stabilizer (BCP or particle), the interplay between stabilizer and oils, and highlighting applications and opportunities associated with o/o emulsions.

Abstract
Abstract
A significant amount of oil (i.e. 60–70%) remains trapped in reservoirs after the conventional primary and secondary methods of oil recovery. Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods are therefore necessary to recover the major fraction of unrecovered trapped oil from reservoirs to meet the present-day energy demands. The chemical EOR method is one of the promising methods where various chemical additives, such as alkalis, surfactants, polymer, and the combination of all alkali–surfactant–polymer (ASP) or surfactant–polymer (SP) solutions, are injected into the reservoir to improve the displacement and sweep efficiency. Every oil field has different conditions, which imposes new challenges toward alternative but more effective EOR techniques. Among such attractive alternative additives are polymeric surfactants, natural surfactants, nanoparticles, and self-assembled polymer systems for EOR. In this paper, water-soluble chemical additives such as alkalis, surfactants, polymer, and ASP or SP solution for chemical EOR are highlighted. This review also discusses the concepts and techniques related to the chemical methods of EOR, and highlights the rheological properties of the chemicals involved in the efficiency of EOR methods.

Abstract
Inverse (water-in-oil) miniemulsions are an important method to encapsulate hydrophilic payloads such as oligonucleotides or peptides. However, the stabilization of inverse miniemulsions usually requires block copolymers that are difficult to synthesize and/or cannot be easily removed after transfer from a hydrophobic continuous phase to an aqueous continuous phase. We describe here a new strategy for the synthesis of a surfactant for inverse miniemulsions by radical addition⁻fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, which consists in a homopolymer with triisopropylsilyl protecting groups. The protecting groups ensure the efficient stabilization of the inverse (water-in-oil, w/o) miniemulsions. Nanocapsules can be formed and the protecting group can be subsequently cleaved for the re-dispersion of nanocapsules in an aqueous medium with a minimal amount of additional surfactant.

Abstract
Poly ((ethylene oxide)-b-(propylene oxide)-b-(ethylene oxide)) triblock copolymers commonly known as poloxamers or Pluronics constitute an important class of nonionic, biocompatible surfactants. Here, a method is reported to incorporate two acid-labile acetal moieties in the backbone of poloxamers to generate acid-cleavable nonionic surfactants. Poly(propylene oxide) is functionalized by means of an acetate-protected vinyl ether to introduce acetal units. Three cleavable PEO-PPO-PEO triblock copolymers (Mn,total = 6600, 8000, 9150 g·mol(-1) ; Mn,PEO = 2200, 3600, 4750 g·mol(-1) ) have been synthesized using anionic ring-opening polymerization. The amphiphilic copolymers exhibit narrow molecular weight distributions (Ð = 1.06-1.08). Surface tension measurements reveal surface-active behavior in aqueous solution comparable to established noncleavable poloxamers. Complete hydrolysis of the labile junctions after acidic treatment is verified by size exclusion chromatography. The block copolymers have been employed as surfactants in a miniemulsion polymerization to generate polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles with mean diameters of ≈200 nm and narrow size distribution, as determined by dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy. Acid-triggered precipitation facilitates removal of surfactant fragments from the nanoparticles, which simplifies purification and enables nanoparticle precipitation "on demand."

Abstract
The review summarizes current trends and developments in the polymerization of alkylene oxides in the last two decades since 1995, with a particular focus on the most important epoxide monomers ethylene oxide (EO), propylene oxide (PO), and butylene oxide (BO). Classical synthetic pathways, i.e., anionic polymerization, coordination polymerization, and cationic polymerization of epoxides (oxiranes), are briefly reviewed. The main focus of the review lies on more recent and in some cases metal-free methods for epoxide polymerization, i.e., the activated monomer strategy, the use of organocatalysts, such as N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and N-heterocyclic olefins (NHOs) as well as phosphazene bases. In addition, the commercially relevant double-metal cyanide (DMC) catalyst systems are discussed. Besides the synthetic progress, new types of multifunctional linear PEG (mf-PEG) and PPO structures accessible by copolymerization of EO or PO with functional epoxide comonomers are presented as well as complex branched, hyperbranched, and dendrimer like polyethers. Amphiphilic block copolymers based on PEO and PPO (Poloxamers and Pluronics) and advances in the area of PEGylation as the most important bioconjugation strategy are also summarized. With the ever growing toolbox for epoxide polymerization, a "polyether universe" may be envisaged that in its structural diversity parallels the immense variety of structural options available for polymers based on vinyl monomers with a purely carbon-based backbone.

Abstract
Highly reactive emulsions were stabilized by employing a surfmer analogous concept. An interfacial reaction between an emulsion droplet and a cross-linkable reactive surfactant was used to provide colloidal stability and simultaneously maintain the majority of the reactive groups. Polyaddition-type reaction between epoxy and amine was chosen as a model system to spontaneously and covalently bond the surfactant to the emulsion droplets. The interfacial reaction was monitored via isothermal titration calorimetry analysis. With this method, the increased colloidal stability could be attributed to a reaction rather than a pure physical adsorption. The maintained reactivity of the emulsion droplets enables consecutive conversions with coreactive components, e.g., for cross-linking reactions, corrosion protection, or functional coatings.
