Triply-responsive boronic acid block copolymers: solution self-assembly induced by changes in temperature, pH, or sugar concentration.
Boronic acid-containing block copolymers capable of solution self-assembly into micelles and reverse micelles in response to changes in temperature, pH, and sugar concentration were prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization.
