The in situ polymerization of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) in poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) solution was carried out to prepare hydrophilic PVDF/PPEGMA blends. Based on T
g data, the system displayed some miscibility at low PPEGMA content because there were some interactions between PVDF and PPEGMA, as illustrated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, while the miscibility disappeared at high PPEGMA content. The β phase was the predominant crystalline phase of PVDF in the in situ blends, which was independent on PPEGMA content. However, the addition of PPEGMA could change the unit cell structure in the direction of the a -axis of β phase. The degree of crystallinity of the in situ blends calculated by wide-angle X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry displayed different tendencies with PPEGMA content. The scanning electron microscopy showed that the “spherulites” size increased with the increase in PPEGMA content, since the “spherulites” were comprised of not only crystalline PVDF but also amorphous PVDF and PPEGMA. In addition, the in situ blend had a great improvement in the hydrophilicity; specifically, its water contact angle was down to 26° when the PPEGMA content only increased to 26.9 wt.%.

The photoinitiated polymerization-induced self-assembly (photo-PISA) of 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA) is conducted in water by using poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (PPEGMA) based macro-RAFT agents. Polymerizations were carried out at room temperature via exposure to visible light irradiation, and quantitative monomer conversions (>99%) were achieved within 30 min of visible light irradiation. A remarkably diverse set of complex morphologies (spheres, worms, and vesicles) have been prepared by aqueous photo-PISA under mild conditions (water medium, room temperature, and visible light). The morphology of nano-objects can be tuned by changing the reaction parameters (e.g. degree of polymerization, solids concentration), and two detailed phase diagrams were constructed. The polymerization can be activated or deactivated by a simple “ON/OFF” switch of the light source. A thermo-responsive behavior of PPEGMA14-PHPMA200 nanoparticles prepared at 15% w/w was investigated by changing the temperature from 25 °C to 4 °C.

Inspired of the synergistic effect of the antifouling performance of hydrophilic substance and the self-cleaning function of low surface energy material, we designed and synthesized a kind of macromolecule amphiphilic graft copolymer by the free radical polymerization, which used polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the main chains, poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (PEGMA) as the hydrophilic segment and trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) as the low surface energy segment. Then, the amphiphilic PVC-g-PPEGMA/PTFEMA graft copolymer membrane was successfully prepared via surface segregation through the phase inversion process and was further optimized via the forced self-assembly through annealing treatments. The results showed that the PPEGMA chain segments migrated on the membrane surface which driven the PTFEMA chain segments to enrich on the membrane surface during the annealing process, meanwhile, annealing treatment promoted the local microphase separation and improved the mean pore size and the porosity. Based on the synergistic effect of hydrophilic and low surface energy segments, the PVC-g-PPEGMA/PTFEMA graft copolymer membrane obtained the maximum pure water flux of 510.69 ± 16.28 L∙m −2 ∙h −1 , flux recovery rate of 91.49% and rejection rate of 99.31% in the BSA filtration process, which also revealed significantly antifouling properties. More importantly, the PVC-g-PPEGMA/PTFEMA copolymer membrane exhibited long-time hydrophilic stability, which could extend its potential service life.

Polymeric nanomaterials made from amphiphilic block copolymers are increasingly used in the treatment of tumor tissues. In this work, we firstly synthesized the amphiphilic block copolymer PBnMA-b-P(BAPMA-co-PEGMA) via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization using benzyl methacrylate (BnMA), poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA), and 3-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)propyl methacrylate (BAPMA) as the monomers. Subsequently, PBnMA-b-P(APMA-co-PEGMA)@NIR 800 with photothermal conversion property was obtained by deprotection of thetert-butoxycarbonyl (BOC) groups of PBAPMA chains with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and post-modification with carboxyl functionalized ketocyanine dye (NIR 800), and it could self-assemble into micelles in CH3OH/water mixed solvent. The NIR photothermal conversion property of the post-modified micelles were investigated. Under irradiation with NIR light (λmax= 810 nm, 0.028 W/cm2) for 1 h, the temperature of the modified micelles aqueous solution increased to 53 °C from 20 °C, which showed the excellent NIR photothermal conversion property.Keywords:amphiphilic block copolymer;self-assembly;NIR photothermal conversion;reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization

Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is an emerging complication in cataract phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation surgery, mainly stemming from the adhesion, proliferation, and trans-differentiation of the post-surgery residual lens epithelial cells (LECs). Previous investigations have shown that an anti-proliferative drug eluting coating on the IOL surface provides an effective way to inhibit PCO. However, due to the undesirable elution of the anti-proliferative drug, the safety of such modification is one of the important issues to be solved. In this investigation, photodynamic coating was introduced into IOL surface modification. The photosensitizer chlorin e6 grafted α-cyclodextrin (α-CD-Ce6) was synthesized and self-assembled onto the poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (PPEGMA) brush established IOL surface via the supramolecular interaction between α-CD and poly(ethylene glycol) chains. The results of investigation into its optical properties, including transmittance, refractive index, and surface morphology, showed no obvious alterations after photodynamic coating modification on the IOL surface. The in vitro LEC behaviour investigation optimized the photodynamic therapy parameters when light illumination was used for the cell elimination on the photodynamic coating modified IOL. The results have also shown that this functional coating modification effectively eliminates the cells on the surface of the IOL material when treated with light illumination, whereas it keeps excellent cytocompatibility in the absence of light illumination. The investigation of the cell elimination mechanism shows that this kind of functional coating eliminates the adherent cells by ROS induced apoptosis. The in vivo implantation result confirms the excellent PCO inhibition effect, as well as their safety and biocompatibility to the surrounding tissues. As a result, the proposed photodynamic coating provides a safer and effective alternative of IOL modification for preventing PCO.

The trade-off between ionic conductivity and mechanical strength is still a great challenge for all-solid-state polymer electrolyte . Herein, a novel structure-controlled fluorine-containing star-branched polymer (HBPS-(PTFEMA- b -PPEGMA) 27 ) with a hyperbranched polystyrene core and polytrifluoroethyl methacrylate-block-poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate arms is synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization . Combining the good mechanical strength of fluorine-containing segments and flexible property of PEG segments, the prepared HBPS-(PTFEMA- b -PPEGMA) 27 /LiTFSI solid polymer electrolyte can form flexible transparent self-standing membrane and exhibits the high ionic conductivity of 2.4 × 10 −5 S cm -1 at 25 °C, as well as good thermal stability with the thermal decomposition temperature of 374.7 °C. It also possesses a wide electrochemical window of 4.9 V and good interfacial compatibility. Moreover, the Li/LiFePO 4 cell based on this solid state star-branched polymer electrolyte membrane delivers a high discharge capacity of 147.2 mAh g −1 under a current density of 0.1C at 60 °C.
