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.

A novel perfluorooctyl bromide (PFOB)-loaded nanovesicle with a size of about 500 nm was prepared by self-assembly of an amphiphilic block copolymer, poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(d,l-lactic acid) (PEG-PDLLA), for blood pool ultrasound imaging.

The block copolymer poly (ε-caprolactone)-b-poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PCL-b-PNIPAM) is synthesized via the combination of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT). PCL-b-PNIPAM can self-assemble into the micelles taking PCL as the cores and PNIPAM as the shells. Add α-CD into the micelles, because the inclusion complexation of α-CD to PCL chains and phenols is stronger than that to PCL, to regulate the hydrophilic and hydrophobic features of PCL chain. So PCL-b-PNIPAM block copolymers have potential application in drug delivery and gene transfection.
