Macromolecular Materials Chemistry Lab (MMCL) pursues to establish synthetic pathways to macromolecules with complex shape and structure, and thus develop advanced polymeric nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications. We are particularly interested in controlling polymer structure, conformation and phase separation in a spatiotemporal manner. Current topics include architectured polymer syntheses, postpolymerization modification, polymerization-induced nanostructuring, and porous materials.

Controlling Folding Height in Bilayer-Folded Lamellae Using Bending Rigidity

In our recent Macromolecules paper, we provide more evidence on the bilayer-folded lamellae and show that the folding height is related to the bending rigidity of the bilayers.

New Paper in JACS!

We report that increasing temperature during the polymerization-induced self-assembly can depolymerize the solvophobic block and thus induce a reversible morphological transition by temperature swing.
