Poly(ionic liquid) nanovesicles via polymerization induced self-assembly and their stabilization of Cu nanoparticles for tailored CO2 electroreduction

Liquid–Liquid-Printed Graphitic Carbon Nitride-Embedded Porous Poly(ionic liquid) Beads as Highly Active Reusable Heterogenous Photocatalysts

“…This indicates that photodeposition was successful, and platinum particles are found on the surface of the g-CN/PIL bead. It has been reported that PILs are promising candidates to host nanoparticles due to strong electronic interactions between the particles and the ionic liquid. , Therefore, the g-CN/PIL beads benefit from having a highly ionic structure.…”

Poly(ionic liquid)s: an emerging platform for green chemistry

“…This enhancement can be ascribed to the strong electronic interactions between the CuNPs and the surface functionalities of PIL NVs. 115 Via in situ ionic complexation between imidazo-lium-based PILs and poly(acrylic acid), Zhao et al 92 fabricated poly(ionic liquid) complexes (PILCs) with stable micro-/mesoporous structure. The PILC can be used as a catalytic support to load copper salts.…”

Synthesis and self-assembly of the amphiphilic homopolymers poly(4-hydroxystyrene) and poly(4-(4-bromophenyloxy)styrene)

“…[4][5][6] The recent development of polymer-based nano-aggregates by designed homopolymers having a hydrophilic and hydrophobic moiety on either side of the hydrophobic backbone is gaining attention for nanotechnology applications. [7][8][9][10][11][12] This clever design allows for the formation of homopolymer nanoaggregates in both aqueous and hydrophobic solutions. Furthermore, Lee et al demonstrate the amphiphilic behavior of poly(2-(4-vinylphenyl)pyridine) in which inter-competition between the hydrophobic polymer backbone and more hydrophilic pendent group in comparison to the backbone allows for the formation of vesicles and micelles in the presence of selective solvent compositions.…”
