Controlled micrometre-scale aggregates were formed using alternating copolymers with regularly arranged diaminopyridine-thymine (DAP-THY) units. This arrangement allows for cooperative binding events, leading to effective aggregate formation.

Area of Science:

  • Supramolecular chemistry
  • Polymer science
  • Materials science

Background:

  • Self-assembly is crucial for creating ordered materials.
  • Controlled aggregate formation is challenging at the microscale.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the formation of well-controlled micrometre-scale aggregates.
  • To explore the role of complementary binding motifs in copolymer self-assembly.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of alternating copolymers incorporating diaminopyridine-thymine (DAP-THY) units.
  • Characterization of aggregate formation using microscopy and scattering techniques.
  • Analysis of binding events and cooperative effects.

Main Results:
