Characterisation of block copolymer self‐assemblies by thermal field‐flow fractionation

Abstract: The ability of block copolymers to self‐assemble into various nanostructures (such as micelles) has attracted significant attention over the years as these block copolymers provide a versatile platform that can readily be modified for a wide range of applications. As such, the solution behaviour of block copolymers has been at the forefront of the modern nanotechnology revolution. However, these novel block copolymer‐based self‐assemblies lack suitable characterisation techniques to determine size, molar mass … Show more

“…[25][26][27][28][29] Details on the basic separation principle are given elsewhere 21,30 and in the supporting information (SI, section 1). FFF is usually coupled to a series of detectors (MALS, dRI, UV, online dynamic scattering or offline FTIR), [31][32][33][34][35] though, the analysis of the separation itself contains already useful information. This is because the measurement of the retention ratio R (void time over retention time) at given field strength allows the determination of the physicochemical parameter describing the response to the force field.…”

“…Moreover, polymeric self-assemblies range from around 10 3 kg/mol and above in molar mass, which generally is above the separation limit of SEC and makes the technique unsuitable for highly aggregated and larger molar mass species. Accordingly, ThFFF has developed into a robust alternative analytical technique for large and delicate self-assemblies. , …”

“…There are many subtechniques on FFF research, such as flow FFF (4F), electrical FFF (EFFF), thermal FFF (TFFF), sedimentation FFF (SFFF). The versatility of FFF had been demonstrated with numerous applications [11][12][13][14][15][16][17].…”
