Reversibly interchangeable, chain-wrapped micelles and vesicles of an amphiphilic rod-coil block copolymer.
The rod-like chains wrap tangentially to the curved interface of the spherical cores of the rod-coil micelles and vesicles that are reversibly interchangeable by varying the polymer concentration.
