MATERIALS PREPARED BY COVALENT SELF-ASSEMBLY OF POLYMERS

Abstract: the present invention concerns a method of producing at least one morphology-defined polymer aggregate by directly and covalently crosslinking polymer entities, the method comprising (a) providing polymer entities bearing covalently crosslinkable groups and respective crosslinker entities, the polymers bearing functional groups cross-linkable by the crosslinkers; and (b) bringing the polymer entities and the crosslinker entities in contact with each other in a solution under conditions that allow the polymer entities to aggregate or assemble into an ordered structure and be intermolecularly crosslinked in one step.
