Abstract
For block copolymer (BCP)/homopolymer self-assembly systems, the molecular weight of homopolymers is usually lower than that of BCPs. Herein, the cooperative self-assembly of polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene glycol) (PS-b-PEG) BCPs with high-molecular-weight polystyrene (PS) homopolymers is reported. The molecular weight of PS homopolymers is 3–63 times that of the PS blocks. Typically, a spherical micelle–vesicle–large sphere morphology transition...
