Self-regulated co-assembly of soft and hard nanoparticles.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a general paradigm for controlled co-assembly of soft block copolymer micelles and simple unvarnished hard nanoparticles through variable noncovalent interactions, including hydrogen bonding and coordination interactions.

TL;DR: In this article , a soft nanobrushes are constructed via surface-initiated living crystallization-driven selfassembly and their active poly(2-vinylpyridine) corona captures abundant metal cations through coordination interactions, allowing the rapid heterogeneous growth of MOF nanoparticles and the subsequent formation of MIL-100 (Fe), HKUST-1 and CUT-8 (Cu) nanoarrays with tailored heights of 220~1100 nm on silicon wafer, Ni foam and ceramic tube.
Capillary-bound dense micelle brush supports for continuous flow catalysis
TL;DR: In this paper, a dense cylindrical micelle brush support was introduced for glass capillary flow reactors through a living crystallization-driven self-assembly process initiated by pre-immobilized short micelle seeds.

Blooming of Block Copolymer Micelles into Complex Nanostructures on a Surface
TL;DR: A solution–surface sequential self-assembly approach to tailor amphiphilic BCPs in solution and subsequently on a substrate into complex nanostructures is reported, independent of the nature of substrate and gravity.

Formation of disk-like micelles of triblock copolymers in frustrating solvents
TL;DR: In this article, a facile route to prepare disk-like micelles through the self-assembly of amphiphilic polystyrene-b-polybutadiene-bpoly(2-vinylpyridine) triblock copolymers in a mixture of acetone and cyclohexane, which shows distinct selectivity towards the PS, PB and P2VP blocks.
