Multicomponent Nanomaterials with Complex Networked Architectures from Orthogonal Degradation and Binary Metal Backfilling in ABC Triblock Terpolymers
Christina D. Cowman,Elliot Padgett,Kwan Wee Tan,Robert Hovden,Yibei Gu,Nina Andrejevic,David A. Muller,Geoffrey W. Coates,Ulrich Wiesner +8 more
TL;DR: Through sequential block etching and backfilling the resulting mesopores with different metals, it is demonstrated first steps toward the preparation of three-component polymer–inorganic hybrid materials with two distinct metal networks.

Asymmetric organic-inorganic hybrid membrane formation via block copolymer-nanoparticle co-assembly.
TL;DR: This fast and straightforward synthesis method for asymmetric hybrid membranes provides a new self-assembly platform upon which multifunctional and high-performance organic-inorganic hybrid membranes can be formed.

Dynamically Responsive Multifunctional Asymmetric Triblock Terpolymer Membranes with Intrinsic Binding Sites for Covalent Molecule Attachment
TL;DR: The synthesis of triblock terpolymer poly(styrene)- block-poly(4-vinylpyridine)-block- poly(propylene sulfide) (SVPS) and its fabrication into isoporous ultrafiltration membranes is reported, which may open pathways to produce high-performance multifunctional membranes for chem- and bio-sensing and for separation of foreign functional molecules.

In Situ Study of Evaporation-Induced Surface Structure Evolution in Asymmetric Triblock Terpolymer Membranes
TL;DR: In this article, the evolution from disordered to ordered structures including a transition from body-centered cubic (BCC) to simple cubic (SC) lattices and finally to an amorphous mesoscale structure was studied using in situ grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS).

Optical Imaging of Large Gyroid Grains in Block Copolymer Templates by Confined Crystallization
Raphael Dehmel,James A. Dolan,Yibei Gu,Ulrich Wiesner,Timothy D. Wilkinson,Jeremy J. Baumberg,Ullrich Steiner,Bodo D. Wilts,Ilja Gunkel +8 more
TL;DR: Insight is provided into polymer crystallization within a tortuous three-dimensional network and a useful method is established for the optical visualization of cubic BCP morphologies that serve as functional nanomaterial templates.
