Anamarija Nikoletic joined the Palivan group for her Master Thesis
Anamarija will work on the synthesis and Complex Self-Assembly of pH responsive Quadrablock Copolymers.
We aim to synthesize our quadrablock copolymer using a combination of several controlled polymerization methods (CROP, RAFT and ATRP) coupled with “click” chemistry. The product should contain enough pH responsive polymer such that block-copolymer can sufficiently change its hydrophilic weight percentage form into a variety of self-assembled structures depending on the pH of the medium.
