Abstract
Herein, an ω,ω-macromolecular chain transfer monomer (macro-CTM) containing a RAFT (reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer) group and a methacryloyl group was synthesized and used to mediate photoinitiated RAFT dispersion polymerization of hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA) in water. The macro-CTM undergoes a self-condensing vinyl polymerization (SCVP) mechanism under RAFT dispersion polymerization conditions, leading to the formation of amphiphilic branched block copolymers and the assemblies. Compared with RAFT solution polymerization, it was found that the SCVP process was promoted under RAFT dispersion polymerization conditions. Morphologies of branched block copolymer assemblies could be controlled by varying the monomer concentration and the [HPMA]/[macro-CTM] ratio. The branched block copolymer vesicles could be used as seeds for seeded RAFT emulsion polymerization, and framboidal vesicles were successfully obtained. Finally, degrees of branching of branched block copolymers could be further controlled by using a binary mixture of the macro-CTM and a linear macro-RAFT agent or a small molecule CTM. We believe that this study not only provides a versatile strategy for the preparation of branched block copolymer assemblies but also offers important insights into polymer synthesis via heterogeneous RAFT polymerization.

Abstract
Polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is a powerful and versatile technique for producing colloidal dispersions of block copolymer particles with desired morphologies. Currently, PISA can be carried out in various media, over a wide range of temperatures, and using different mechanisms. This method enables the production of biodegradable objects and particles with various functionalities and stimuli sensitivity. Consequently, PISA offers a broad spectrum of potential commercial applications. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the current state of rational synthesis of block copolymer particles with diverse morphologies using various PISA techniques and mechanisms. The discussion begins with an examination of the main thermodynamic, kinetic, and structural aspects of block copolymer micellization, followed by an exploration of the key principles of PISA in the formation of gradient and block copolymers. The review also delves into the main mechanisms of PISA implementation and the principles governing particle morphology. Finally, the potential future developments in PISA are considered.

Abstract
Life activities, such as respiration, are accomplished through the continuous shape modulation of cells, tissues, and organs. Developing smart materials with shape-morphing capability is a pivotal step toward life-like systems and emerging technologies of wearable electronics, soft robotics, and biomimetic actuators. Drawing inspiration from cells, smart vesicular systems have been assembled to mimic the biological shape modulation. This would enable the understanding of cellular shape adaptation and guide the design of smart materials with shape-morphing capability. Polymer vesicles assembled by amphiphilic molecules are an example of remarkable vesicular systems. The chemical versatility, physical stability, and surface functionality promise their application in nanomedicine, nanoreactor, and biomimetic systems. However, it is difficult to drive polymer vesicles away from equilibrium to induce shape transformation due to the unfavorable energy landscapes caused by the low mobility of polymer chains and low permeability of the vesicular membrane. Extensive studies in the past decades have developed various methods including dialysis, chemical addition, temperature variation, polymerization, gas exchange, etc., to drive shape transformation. Polymer vesicles can now be engineered into a variety of nonspherical shapes. Despite the brilliant progress, most of the current studies regarding the shape transformation of polymer vesicles still lie in the trial-and-error stage. It is a grand challenge to predict and program the shape transformations of polymer vesicles. An in-depth understanding of the deformation pathway of polymer vesicles would facilitate the transition from the trial-and-error stage to the computing stage. In this Account, we introduce recent progress in the shape transformation of polymer vesicles. To provide an insightful analysis, the shape transformation of polymer vesicles is divided into basic and coupled deformation. First, we discuss the basic deformation of polymer vesicles with a focus on two deformation pathways: the oblate pathway and the prolate pathway. Strategies used to trigger different deformation pathways are introduced. Second, we discuss the origin of the selectivity of two deformation pathways and the strategies used to control the selectivity. Third, we discuss the coupled deformation of polymer vesicles with a focus on the switch and coupling of two basic deformation pathways. Last, we analyze the challenges and opportunities in the shape transformation of polymer vesicles. We envision that a systematic understanding of the deformation pathway would push the shape transformation of polymer vesicles from the trial-and-error stage to the computing stage. This would enable the prediction of deformation behaviors of nanoparticles in complex environments, like blood and interstitial tissue, and access to advanced architecture desirable for man-made applications.

Abstract
We exploited the monomer-feeding mechanism of reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) emulsion polymerization to achieve the successful polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) of asymmetric divinyl monomers. Colloidally stable cross-linked block copolymer nanoparticles with various morphologies, such as vesicles, were directly prepared at high solids. Morphologies of the cross-linked block copolymer nanoparticles could be controlled by varying the monomer concentration, degree of polymerization (DP) of the core-forming block, and length of the macro-RAFT agent. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterization confirmed the presence of unreacted vinyl groups within the obtained block copolymer nanoparticles, providing a landscape for further functionalization via thiol-ene chemistry. Finally, the obtained block copolymer nanoparticles were employed as additives to tune the mechanical properties of hydrogels. We expect that this study not only offers considerable opportunities for the preparation of well-defined cross-linked block copolymer nanoparticles, but also provides important insights into the controlled polymerization of multivinyl monomers.

Abstract
Over the past decade, polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) has fully proved its versatility for scale-up production of block copolymer nanoparticles with tunable sizes and morphologies; yet, there are still some limitations. Recently, seeded PISA approaches combing PISA with heterogeneous seeded polymerizations have been greatly explored and are expected to overcome the limitations of traditional PISA. In this review, recent advances in seeded PISA that have expanded new horizons for PISA are highlighted including i) general considerations for seeded PISA (e.g., kinetics, the preparation of seeds, the selection of monomers), ii) morphological evolution induced by seeded PISA (e.g., from corona-shell-core nanoparticles to vesicles, vesicles-to-toroid, disassembly of vesicles into nanospheres), and iii) various well-defined nanoparticles with hierarchical and sophisticated morphologies (e.g., multicompartment micelles, porous vesicles, framboidal vesicles, AXn -type colloidal molecules). Finally, new insights into seeded PISA and future perspectives are proposed.

Abstract
Zwitterionic polyelectrolyte nanogels are prospective nanocarriers due to their soft loading pocket and regulated charges. We here report a facile strategy, namely, electrostatic-templated polymerization (ETP) for synthesizing zwitterionic nanogels with controlled size and properties. Specifically, with anionic-neutral diblock polymers as the template, zwitterionic monomers such as carboxybetaine methacrylate (CBMA) or carboxybetaine acrylamide (CBAA) are polymerized together with a cross-linker at pH 2 where the monomers exhibit only positive charge due to the protonation of the carboxyl group. The obtained polyelectrolyte complex micelles dissociate upon introducing a concentrated salt. The subsequent separation yields the released template and zwitterionic nanogels with regulated size and swelling ability, achieved by tuning the salt concentration and cross-linker fraction during polymerization. The obtained PCBMA nanogels exhibit charges depending on the pH, which enables not only the selective loading of different dye molecules, but also encapsulation and intracellular delivery of cytochrome c protein. Our study develops a facile and robust way for fabricating zwitterionic nanogels and validates their potential applications as promising nanocarriers for load and delivery of functional charged cargos.

Abstract
Polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) and crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) techniques have emerged as powerful approaches to produce a broad range of advanced synthetic nano-objects with high potential in biomedical applications. PISA produces nano-objects of different morphologies (e.g., spheres, vesicles and worms), with high solids content (∼10-50 wt %) and without additional surfactant. CDSA can finely control the self-assembly of block copolymers and readily forms nonspherical crystalline nano-objects and more complex, hierarchical assemblies, with spatial and dimensional control over particle length or surface area, which is typically difficult to achieve by PISA. Considering the importance of these two assembly techniques in the current scientific landscape of block copolymer self-assembly and the craze for their use in the biomedical field, this review will focus on the advances in PISA and CDSA to produce nano-objects suitable for biomedical applications in terms of (bio)degradability and biocompatibility. This review will therefore discuss these two aspects in order to guide the future design of block copolymer nanoparticles for future translation toward clinical applications.

Abstract
Block copolymer vesicles with diverse functionalities and intrinsic hollow structures have received considerable attention due to their broad applications in biomedical fields, including drug delivery, bioimaging, theranostics, gene therapy, etc. However, efficient preparation of block copolymer vesicles with tunable membrane thicknesses and compositions under mild conditions is still a challenge. Herein, we report an aqueous seeded photoinitiated polymerization-induced self-assembly (photo-PISA) for the precise preparation of block copolymer vesicles at room temperature. By changing the total degree of polymerization (DP) of the hydrophobic block in seeded photo-PISA, one can easily tune the membrane thickness without compromising the morphology of vesicles. Moreover, by adding different comonomers such as hydrophobic monomers, hydrophilic monomers, and cross-linkers into seeded photo-PISA, vesicles with different compositions could be prepared without compromising the morphology and colloidal stability. Polymerization kinetics show that seeded photo-PISA can skip the step of in situ self-assembly with a short homogeneous polymerization stage being observed. To demonstrate potential biological applications, enzymatic nanoreactors were constructed by loading horseradish peroxidase (HRP) inside vesicles via seeded photo-PISA. The enzymatic properties of these nanoreactors could be easily regulated by changing the membrane thickness and hydrophobicity. It is expected that this method can provide a facile platform for the precise preparation of block copolymer vesicles that may find applications in different fields.

Abstract
Bottlebrush polymers exhibiting unique properties have attracted considerable attention for applications in many research areas. Herein, we report the first simultaneous synthesis and self-assembly of bottlebrush block copolymers at room temperature via photoinitiated polymerization-induced self-assembly (photo-PISA) using multifunctional macromolecular chain transfer agents (macro-CTAs). Compare with linear block copolymers, the bottlebrush block copolymers could promote the formation of higher-order morphologies (e.g. vesicles) when targeting similar degrees of polymerization (DPs). Moreover, a higher polymerization rate was observed in the case of bottlebrush block copolymers. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis showed that good polymerization control was maintained when synthesizing bottlebrush block copolymers by photo-PISA. Finally, the obtained bottlebrush block copolymer vesicles were used as seeds for further chain extension and multicomponent nanoparticles with a sponge internal structure were formed. We expect this study will not only expand polymer architectures employed in PISA, but also provides a new strategy to synthesize polymer nanoparticles with unique structures.

Abstract
Macromolecular crowding plays a key role in liquid-phase condensation of proteins and membraneless organelles yet is largely unexplored for artificial liquid materials. Herein, we present a strategy for direct access to multiphase liquid condensates with individual charged/neutral subdomains, by introducing macromolecular crowding to our previous protocol of liquid-liquid phase-separation-driven polymerization-induced electrostatic self-assembly (LLPS-PIESA). We show that reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous dispersion photo-copolymerization of a charged monomer with a specific neutral monomer, in the presence of a polar macrochain transfer agent (CTA) and an oppositely charged polyion, can induce self-sorting and macromolecular crowding. LLPS-PIESA proceeds via liquid-phase condensation of as-assembled nascent clusters up to biologically important nanostructured multiphase condensates with individual charged/neutral subdomains.

Abstract
Over the past decade or so, polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) has become a versatile method for rational preparation of concentrated block copolymer nanoparticles with a diverse set of morphologies. Much of the PISA literature has focused on the preparation of well-defined linear block copolymers by using linear macromolecular chain transfer agents (macro-CTAs) with high chain transfer constants. In this review, a recent process is highlighted from an unusual angle that has expanded the scope of PISA including i) synthesis of block copolymers with nonlinear architectures (e.g., star block copolymer, branched block copolymer) by PISA, ii) in situ synthesis of blends of polymers by PISA, and iii) utilization of macro-CTAs with low chain transfer constants in PISA. By highlighting these important examples, new insights into the research of PISA and future impact these methods will have on polymer and colloid synthesis are provided.

Hierarchical polyion complex vesicles from PAMAM dendrimers. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 606:307-316.

Abstract
Hierarchical dendrimer-based polyion complex (PIC) vesicles with multiple compartments have attracted considerable attention as functional delivery vehicles and nano-carriers. Formation of these vesicles relies on the electrostatic assembly of asymmetric polyelectrolytes, namely branched dendrimers with linear polyion-neutral diblock copolymers. However, successful incorporation of dendrimers in vesicle lamellae is challenging due to the compact structure of dendrimers, and therefore, vesicles reported so far are prepared mainly with low generation dendrimers which lack the cavity required for carrier functions. Here, we present a new assembly combination of amine-terminated dendrimer polyamidoamine (PAMAM) with polyion-neutral diblock copolymer poly (styrene sulphonate-b-ethylene oxide) (PSS-b-PEO). The strong charge interaction between the building blocks leads to stable and well-defined PIC vesicles that can tolerate not only different PSS block lengths but, more importantly, also different dendrimer generations from 2 to 7. As a consequence, high generation dendrimers with a cavity can be packed in the vesicle wall, and one obtains hierarchical PIC vesicles with multiple compartments, namely the dendrimer cavity for loading small hydrophobic cargo, and the vesicle lumen for encapsulating hydrophilic macromolecules. Our study demonstrates that combining proper building blocks enables to manipulate the charge interactions, which is essential for controlling the dendrimer packing and the formation of PIC vesicles. These findings should be helpful for understanding the assembly of asymmetric (linear / branched) polyelectrolyte complexes, as well as for designing new hierarchical PIC vesicles for controlled delivery of multiple active substances.

Abstract
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) is an important thermo-responsive polymer that finds applications in many areas. However, the preparation of PNIPAM-based block copolymer nanoparticles with higher-order morphologies at high solids is challenging. Herein, aqueous photoinitiated polymerization-induced self-assembly (photo-PISA) of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) using an asymmetrical cross-linker is developed for one-step preparation of PNIPAM-based block copolymer nanoparticles with various morphologies (spheres, worms, and vesicles). It is demonstrated that reaction temperature has a great effect on both polymerization kinetics and morphologies of block copolymer nanoparticles. Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) reactive groups embedded inside the PNIPAM core provide a landscape for further functionalization. PNIPAM-based block copolymer nanoparticles with different surface properties are prepared by seeded photo-PISA at room temperature. Finally, these block copolymer nanoparticles are also used as additives to tune mechanical properties of hydrogels via covalent cross-linking.

Abstract
Type I photoinitiators have been widely used in UV-vis curing technology for the fabrication of functional polymer materials such as coatings, inks, and adhesives. To overcome the drawbacks of using small molecular type I photoinitiators and expand the potential applications of UV-vis curing technology, attaching type I photoinitiators onto the surface of polymer colloids is an attractive strategy. Here we report a robust strategy for the efficient preparation of type I photoinitiator-functionalized block copolymer nanoparticles with various morphologies via aqueous reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT)-mediated polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA), in which the photoinitiating ability of the type I photoinitiator end group provides a landscape for further functionalization. These block copolymer nanoparticles could also be used as heterogeneous photoinitiators to generate hydrogels with nanoparticles embedded inside. Significantly, the properties and functionalities of these hydrogels could be further controlled by using different block copolymer nanoparticles. This study provides a robust strategy toward the preparation of type I photoinitiator-functionalized block copolymer nanoparticles with the capacity to be modified with varying functionalities.

Abstract
Herein, a photoinitiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) dispersion polymerization of 2-(acetoacetoxy)ethyl methacrylate (AEMA) in ethanol/water at room temperature for in situ preparation of β-ketoester-functionalized block copolymer nano-objects is reported. AEMA is also copolymerized with isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA) to improve the colloidal stability of PIBOMA-based block copolymer nano-objects prepared by photoinitiated RAFT dispersion polymerization at low temperatures. A series of P(IBOMA-stat-AEMA)-based block copolymer nano-objects are prepared by changing reaction parameters. Finally, lanthanide-doped block copolymer nano-objects with luminescent and magnetic properties are also prepared based on the complexation of various lanthanide ions with the β-ketoester group. It is expected that the current study will provide a facile platform for the in situ preparation of β-ketoester-functionalized block copolymer nano-objects with different morphologies for specific applications.

Abstract
Polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles with integrated advances of coacervate complexes and nanomaterials have attracted considerable attention as soft templates and functional nano-carriers. Herein, a facile and robust strategy, namely electrostatic assembly directed polymerization (EADP), for efficient and scalable preparation of stable coacervate nanoparticles is presented. With homo-polyelectrolyte PAA (polyacrylic acid) as template and out of charge stoichiometry, the cationic monomers are polymerized together with cross-linkers, which creates coacervate nanoparticles featuring high stability against salt through one-pot synthesis. The particle size can be tuned by varying the cross-linker amount and salt concentrations during the polymerization and the composition of nanoparticles, as well as the corresponding properties can be regulated by combining different charged blocks from both strong and weak ionic monomers. The strategy can tolerate both high monomer concentrations and increased volume of up to l L, which is favorable for scaled-up preparations. Moreover, the coacervate nanoparticles can be freeze-dried to produce a product in powder form, which can be redispersed without any effect on the particle size and size distribution. Finally, the obtained nanoparticles loaded with enzyme and Au nanoparticles exhibit enhanced catalytic performance, demonstrating a great potential for exploring various applications of coacervate particles as soft and functional nano-carriers.

Abstract
In this study, we report dual roles for doxorubicin (DOX), which can serve as an antitumor drug as well as a cocatalyst for a photoliving radical polymerization. DOX enhances the polymerization rates of a broad range of monomers, including acrylamide, acrylate, and methacrylates, allowing for high monomer conversion and well-defined molecular weights under irradiation with a blue light-emitting diode light (λmax = 485 nm, 2.2 mW/cm2). Utilizing this property, the photopolymerization of N,N-diethylacrylamide was performed in the presence of a poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate) macroreversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (macroRAFT) agent to prepare polymeric nanoparticles via aqueous polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). By varying the monomer:macroRAFT ratio, spherical polymeric nanoparticles of various diameters could be produced. Most notably, DOX was successfully encapsulated into the hydrophobic core of nanoparticles during the PISA process. The DOX-loaded nanoparticles were effectively uptaken into tumor cells and significantly inhibited the proliferation of tumor cells, demonstrating that the DOX bioactivity was not affected by the polymerization reaction.

Abstract
Block copolymer vesicles loaded with active compounds have been employed as decent candidates to mimic complex biological systems that attract considerable interest in different research communities. We herein report a visible light-initiated seeded reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT)-mediated polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) for in situ preparation of enzyme-loaded cross-linked block copolymer vesicles without compromising the bioactivity. Permeability of the vesicular membrane can be regulated through changing the solution temperature, allowing further control over the enzymatic reaction rate of enzyme-loaded vesicles. Finally, non-cross-linked thermoresponsive block copolymer vesicles that can transform into worm-like micelles at low temperature are also prepared by this method, allowing the release of bimacromolecules from the vesicles under mild conditions.

Abstract
Hierarchical supramolecular chiral liquid-crystalline (LC) polymer assemblies are challenging to construct in situ in a controlled manner. Now, polymerization-induced chiral self-assembly (PICSA) is reported. Hierarchical supramolecular chiral azobenzene-containing block copolymer (Azo-BCP) assemblies were constructed with π-π stacking interactions occurring in the layered structure of Azo smectic phases. The evolution of chirality from terminal alkyl chain to Azo mesogen building blocks and further induction of supramolecular chirality in LC BCP assemblies during PICSA is achieved. Morphologies such as spheres, worms, helical fibers, lamellae, and vesicles were observed. The morphological transition had a crucial effect on the chiral expression of Azo-BCP assemblies. The supramolecular chirality of Azo-BCP assemblies destroyed by 365 nm UV irradiation can be recovered by heating-cooling treatment; this dynamic reversible achiral-chiral switching can be repeated at least five times.

Abstract
Herein, polymerization-induced electrostatic self-assembly (PIESA) is conducted to mediate the self-assembly behavior of short interfering RNA (siRNA) for the first time. In PIESA, siRNA not only formed a simple electrostatic polyplex with positively charged polycations, but also facilitated directed self-assembly due to the molecular rigidity of siRNA, leading to appealing nanotubes.

Abstract
Heterogenous reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) has become an important method for the preparation of a diverse set of well-defined polymer materials in dispersed systems. Conducting heterogeneous RDRP at room temperature seems to be a minor adjustment in polymerization technique but this will lead to a great opportunity for functional polymer synthesis, developing of interesting heterogeneous RDRP systems, and better mechanistic insights into heterogeneous RDRP. In this Viewpoint, we highlight some recent advances of room-temperature heterogeneous RDRP that are challenging to achieve via traditional thermally initiated heterogeneous RDRP. We hope that this Viewpoint can provide some inspiration for both experts in this field and new comers, as well as nonexperts who are interested in preparing their own polymer materials by conducting room-temperature heterogeneous RDRP.
