Abstract
A detailed study of the different structural transitions of the triblock copolymer PEO27-PPO61-PEO27 (P104) in water, in the dilute and semi-dilute regions, is addressed here as a function of temperature and P104 concentration (CP104) by mean of complimentary methods: viscosimetry, densimetry, dynamic light scattering, turbidimetry, polarized microscopy, and rheometry. The hydration profile was calculated through density and sound velocity measurements. It was possible to identify the regions where monomers exist, spherical micelle formation, elongated cylindrical micelles formation, clouding points, and liquid crystalline behavior. We report a partial phase diagram including information for P104 concentrations from 1 × 10-4 to 90 wt.% and temperatures from 20 to 75 °C that will be helpful for further interaction studies with hydrophobic molecules or active principles for drug delivery.

Abstract
A lattice theory for block copolymer solutions near the boundary between the micellization and liquid-liquid phase separation regions proposes a new kinetic process of micellization where small concentrated-phase droplets are first formed and then transformed into micelles in the early stage of micellization. Moreover, the thermodynamically stable concentrated phase formed from metastable micelles by a unique ripening process in the late stage of phase separation, where the growing concentrated-phase droplet size is proportional to the square root of the time.

Abstract
The dynamic nature of the disulfide bond has enhanced the potential for disulfide based amphiphiles in the emerging biomedical field. Disulfide containing amphiphiles have extensively been used for constructing wide ranging soft nanostructures as potential candidates for delivery of drugs, proteins and genes owing to their degradable nature in the presence of intracellular glutathione (present in a many fold excess compared to the extracellular milieu). This degradable nature of amphiphiles is not only useful to deliver therapeutics but it also eliminates the toxicity issues associated with the carrier after delivery of such therapeutics. Therefore, these bioreducible and biocompatible nano-aggregates inspired researchers to use them as vehicles for therapeutic delivery and as a result the literature of disulfide containing amphiphiles has been intensified. This review article highlights the structural diversity in disulfide containing amphiphilic small molecule and polymeric systems, structural effects on their aqueous aggregation, redox-responsive disassembly and biological applications. Furthermore, the use of disulfide chemistry towards the design of cell penetrating polymers has also been discussed. Finally a brief perspective on some future opportunities of these systems is provided.

Abstract
Associative block copolymers of the type (EO) x(PO) y(EO) x (where EO and PO represent ethylene and propylene oxides, respectively) in aqueous solution have far reaching commercial applications such as solubilization, controlled-drug delivery, etc. The molecular dynamics of a self-associating triblock copolymer (EO)20(PO)70(EO)20 (known as P123 with a molecular weight of ∼5800), in aqueous solution (D2O), consisting of various lyotropic liquid crystalline phases such as isotropic micellar, cubic, hexagonal, and lamellar phases, is investigated using the fast field cycling nuclear magnetic resonance (FFC NMR) relaxometry technique in the Larmor frequency range from 5 kHz to 30 MHz. A nuclear spin-relaxation model consisting of chain modes (Rouse modes) and order fluctuation (OF) modes typical for polymers and liquid crystals, respectively, is considered to explain the observed proton magnetic relaxation dispersion (PMRD) data in the lyophases under investigation. The PMRD analysis in both isotropic micellar and cubic phases revealed a Rouse frequency dependence of spin-lattice relaxation rate ( R1), i.e., R1 ∝ -τs ln(ωτs), in the entire frequency range of study. Hexagonal and lamellar phase data show Rouse modes as well as OF modes, leaving the signature of the latter as R1 ∝ ω- p, where p ∼ 0.5 is typical for nematic mesogens. The activation energies were also determined from segmental correlation times in the lyophases of study. To the best of our knowledge, the present FFC NMR relaxometry study is unique and quantitative in unraveling molecular dynamics of the associative copolymer P123 in aqueous solution.

Abstract
The rate of molecular exchange in diblock copolymer micelles is strongly dependent on the chain length of the core-forming insoluble block. Less is known about the influence of the soluble block forming the micellar corona. In this study we present a time-resolved small angle neutron scattering (TR-SANS) study exploring systematically the effect of corona chain length on the dynamics of chain exchange. As a model system we have taken amphiphilic AB diblock copolymers of the type C27H55-poly(ethylene oxide)x (C27-PEOx) with varying x between 4 and 36 kg/mol in aqueous solution in which well-defined spherical micelles with partially crystalline cores are formed. The TR-SANS results show that the chain exchange slows down considerably upon increasing PEO molecular weight, while the characteristic "attempt time" constant, τ0, was found to increase with a power law dependence τ0 ∼ MPEO9/5. The results are in excellent agreement with the Halperin and Alexander model1 and can be attributed to a reduced diffusion rate through the micellar corona. Our results clearly demonstrate that the rate for molecular exchange is not directly coupled to the solubility of the amphiphile and the critical micellar concentration, as has previously been indicated.

Abstract
We report kinetic experiments on dilute brine solutions of P84, P94 and P104 Pluronic copolymer micelles. The growth and the decay of micelles after temperature steps are measured by non-standard time resolved multi-angle photon correlation spectroscopy. Several concurrent mechanisms are at work during the very slow equilibration of solutions, namely insertion/expulsion of unimers, aggregation/dissociation of micellar aggregates, and fusion/budding of micellar aggregates. Their relative rates determine both the kinetic pathways and the morphologies of the micellar assemblies, which depend markedly on modest changes in the copolymer molecular weight. For the typical Pluronic copolymers investigated here, none of these elementary processes can be neglected if the resulting morphology is to be explained. This feature imposes multiple kinetic behaviours where growth and decay of Pluronic micelles become strongly dependent on the thermal history. We point out to some possible shortcomings in the studies of micellar growth kinetics by light scattering techniques. Extensive time-resolved multiangle measurements are a prerequisite for avoiding these pitfalls.

Abstract
This paper revises the general idea about the role of intermicellar and intramiceller interactions in inhibiting fusion of self-assembled surfactant micelles. Fusion and fission of micelles are usually thought to be limited by different mechanisms. While fission is accepted to be controlled by surface instabilities (intramicellar interactions), fusion is commonly thought to be rate limited by the barrier to the close approach between two micelles due to the steric or Coulombic repulsions (intramicellar interactions). Here we describe the role of electrostatic repulsions in inhibiting fusion and fission kinetics in self-assembled micelles. We use stopped flow-fluorescence technique with hydrophobic pyrene to quantify fusion and fission in ionic/nonionic mixed micelles (Triton X-100/SDS). We show that the fusion and fission rates decrease with the same tendency with increasing the fraction of the ionic charges, while their ratio remains constant. Our results are interpreted to mean that, in slightly charged micelles, fusion shares the same limiting step with fission, which most likely involves surface instabilities and intramiceller interactions.

Abstract
The kinetics of the sphere-to-rod transition was studied in aqueous micelle solutions of triblock copolymer poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) pluronic P103 (PEO(17)PPO(60)PEO(17)). This transition was triggered by a temperature jump from the sphere phase to the rod phase and monitored with dynamic light scattering. The combination of the scattering intensity and the hydrodynamic radius were used to show that the micelles grow steadily as rods throughout the growth process. The transition was found to exhibit a single exponential behavior even in the case of large deviations from equilibrium. The linear increase in the decay rate with increasing copolymer concentration shows that the transition is dominated by a mechanism involving fusion and fragmentation of proper micelles. The decays of the sphere-to-rod transition were simulated for two pathways: random fusion fragmentation and successive addition of spherical micelles to rods. We show that micelle growth most likely occurs via random fusion-fragmentation. The second order rate constant for fusion and the fragmentation rate are calculated for the case of random fusion-fragmentation.

Abstract
The heating-induced micellization of poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (Pluronic PE10300) triblock copolymer chains was studied by ultrasensitive differential scanning calorimetry, laser light scattering, and fluorescence spectrometry with a fluorescent probe, 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid ammonium salt. The critical micellization temperatures obtained from the three methods are similar. The micellization kinetics was studied in terms of changes in the fluorescence and Rayleigh scattering intensities after an ultrafast infrared heating laser pulse (approximately 10 ns)-induced temperature jump. The increases in the fluorescence and Rayleigh scattering intensities in the millisecond range can be well described by a single-exponential equation, corresponding to the incorporation of individual triblock copolymer chains (unimers) into large spherical micelles. The increase in copolymer concentration or the initial solution temperature decreases the characteristic transition time. In general, the fluorescence measurement has a better signal-to-noise ratio but leads to a transition time that is slightly shorter than that from the corresponding Rayleigh scattering measurement for a given copolymer solution.

Abstract
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM)-based tetrafunctional atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) macroinitiator (1b) was synthesized via addition reaction of mono-amino-terminated PNIPAM (1a) with glycidol, followed by esterification with excess 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide. Well-defined double hydrophilic miktoarm AB4 star copolymer, PNIPAM-b-(PDEA)4, was then synthesized by polymerizing 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DEA) via ATRP in 2-propanol at 45 degrees C using 1b, where PDEA was poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate). For comparison, PNIPAM-b-PDEA linear diblock copolymer with comparable molecular weight and composition to that of PNIPAM-b-(PDEA)4 was prepared via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The pH- and thermoresponsive "schizophrenic" micellization behavior of the obtained PNIPAM65-b-(PDEA63)4 miktoarm star and PNIPAM70-b-PDEA260 linear diblock copolymers were investigated by 1H NMR and laser light scattering (LLS). In acidic solution and elevated temperatures, PNIPAM-core micelles were formed; whereas at slightly alkaline conditions and room temperature, structurally inverted PDEA-core micelles were formed. The size of the PDEA-core micelles of PNIPAM65-b-(PDEA63)4 is much smaller than that of PNIPAM70-b-PDEA260. Furthermore, the pH-induced micellization kinetics of the AB4 miktoarm star and AB block copolymers were investigated by the stopped-flow light scattering technique upon a pH jump from 4 to 10. Typical kinetic traces for the micellization of both types of copolymers can be well fitted with double-exponential functions, yielding a fast (tau1) and a slow (tau2) relaxation processes. tau1 for both copolymers decreased with increasing polymer concentration. tau2 was independent of polymer concentration for PNIPAM65-b-(PDEA63)4, whereas it decreased with increasing polymer concentration for PNIPAM70-b-PDEA260. The chain architectural effects on the micellization properties and the underlying mechanisms were discussed in detail.

Abstract
A number of results reported on the kinetics of exchange of triblock copolymers poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide), PEO-PPO-PEO, between micelles and the intermicellar aqueous solution are reviewed and analyzed to extract the rate constants k(+) for the entry of a copolymer into a micelle and k(-) for the exit of a copolymer from a micelle. Contrary to what is generally observed for conventional surfactants, the rate constant for the entry of a copolymer into a micelle is slower to much slower than for a diffusion-controlled process and decreases as the degree of polymerization of the PO block, n(PO), increases. The effect of the degree of polymerization of the EO block, n(EO), on the two rate constants is significant only for low values of n(EO). The variation of k(-) with n(PO) strongly suggests that the free copolymer molecule adopts a conformation where the PO block is tightly coiled with little contact with water and not a fully extended and hydrated conformation, in contrast to what is commonly assumed when analyzing the dependence of the cmc on the polymerization degree of the hydrophobic block.

Abstract
We present a study of equilibrium chain-exchange kinetics of a well-defined model system for starlike polymeric micelles. The results show that the kinetics follows a logarithmic time dependence. The same feature has been confirmed for two other micellar systems. This is in sharp contrast to theoretical predictions and hints towards strongly coupled chain dynamics within the micellar cores induced by geometrical constraints.

Abstract
In this work, the surface activity of block copolymer nonionic surfactants (RPE) has been determined, i.e., critical micelle concentration (CMC), surface excess concentration (gamma), surface area demand per molecule (A), surface tension at CMC (gamma(CMC)). A linear decrease of ln[CMC] vs number of oxypropylene units in copolymer molecule was observed. The change in the work of cohesion per oxypropylene group when passing from molecular into micellar state, calculated from the Shinoda equation, was 0.43 kT for the studied compounds.

Abstract
Biodegradable methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(D,L-lactide) amphiphilic block copolymeric nanospheres were prepared for application as a particulate drug carrier. Drug-loaded nanospheres (ML50) showed a narrow size distribution with the average diameter of <200 nm. When the feed weight ratio of indomethacin (IMC) to polymer was 1:1, the ML50 nanosphere having a relatively high drug-loading efficiency of about 33.0% could be obtained. To investigate pharmacokinetic characteristics of IMC in rats, the IMC concentration in plasma was analyzed using a high-performance liquid chromatography system after intravenous bolus injection of free IMC and IMC-loaded ML50 nanospheres. ML50 nanosphere system exhibited a significant potential for sustained release of drug and showed slow clearance of IMC, but there was no significant effect on metabolism of IMC in the rats. Median lethal dose (LD50) and major organs (e.g., heart, lung, liver, and kidney) toxicities were determined using ICR mice to estimate the acute toxicity of ML50 nanospheres. The LD50 of ML50 nanospheres determined by Litchfield-Wilcoxon method was about 1.54 g/kg. After the mice were intraperitoneally administered with a half dose of LD50 for 7 days, no significant histopathologic changes were observed in ML50-treated mice compared with normal mice in the light and electron microscopic observations of major organs. This indicates that ML50 nanospheres might be a useful candidate as a novel sustained drug carrier for hydrophobic drugs.

Abstract
Polymer colloids with internal ordering were synthesized using hydrolytic condensation of octadecyl-dimethyl(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)ammonium chloride (ODMACl) and a mixture of ODMACl and the trisodium salt of the triacetic acid N-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)ethylenediamine (TANED). The structure and morphology of these colloids were studied with small-angle X-ray scattering, transmission electron microscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, sedimentation in ultracentrifuge; and other methods. When polymer colloids are obtained from a single precursor (ODMACl), their local structure, molecular weight characteristics, and morphology strongly depend on the reaction conditions, while lamellar ordering remains nearly unaffected. Use of a mixture of cationic and anionic silanes (ODMACl and TANED) as precursors in hydrolytic condensation results in novel zwitterionic copolymer colloids with two-dimensional hexagonal packing. Interaction of the ODMACl quaternary ammonium groups with the three carboxy groups of TANED leads to replacement of sodium and chloride ions and formation of gegenions, resulting in a molar ratio ODMACl:TANED = 3:1 (each TANED molecule contains three carboxy groups). Due to their ordered interior, polyODMACl (PODMACl) and PODMACl-TANED colloids can be used as templates for controlled positioning of nanoparticles within these colloids. For example, lamellar ordering controls Pt nanoparticle formation within PODMACl colloids providing Pt nanoparticle alignment within the lamellar structure. Loading of PODMACl-TANED colloids with iron salts followed by pH increase results in the formation of iron oxide nanoparticles located within PODMACl-TANED cylinders.
