Organic/inorganic hybrid materials based upon stimuli-responsive copolymers have attracted an inceasing attention. Compared with the polymeric materials, these hybrid materials can form aggregates in aqueous solution with much more stable shape-persistance due to the inorganic structure, which facilitate the mass delivery and long-term life. A novel hybrid material based on a new reactive block copolymer, poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly{3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate-co-N-isopropylacrylamide-co-6-[4-(4-methoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate} [PEO-P(TMSPMA-NIPAM-AzoMA)] was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The vesicles were obtained by self-assembly of the resulting block copolymer in a selective solvent, and then the PTMSPMA block was subjected to hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction to fix vesicle wall in the presence of triethylamine as a catalyst. The photo- and thermo- dual-responsive properties of the vesicles were investigated.

Stimuli-responsive mesoporous silica films were prepared by evaporation-induced self-assembly through the physical entrapment of a functional block copolymer structuring agent, which simultaneously serves to functionalise the mesopore.

Stimuli-responsive water-soluble and amphiphilic polymers have attracted much attention because their micelles can be produced or destroyed by changing the temperatute, pH, ionic strength, and solvent polarity. In this work, a triply hydrophilic block copolymer of poly (ethylene glycol) and poly (methacrylic acid-co-dimethylamine ethyl methacrylate) [PEO-P(MAA-co-DMAEMA)] was synthesized and characterized. The copolymer system is believed to have the potential for drug delivery applications due to the biocompatibility of MAA and DMAEMA.

A water-soluble cystamine-block copolymer undergoes air/pH-mediated programmable self-assembly/reconstructions simply stemming from the unique environment-mediated reaction complexity of the cystamine-functionalized unit.
