Abstract:
Pluronic F127, P123 and cross-linked F127 diacrylate micelles are photochemically deoxygenating nanocapsules in which oxygen could be removed by photochemical reaction with a surfactant and efficient triplet-triplet annihilation photon upconversion (TTA-UC) can be achieved in air. The efficiency of TTA-UC under air is comparable to that under deoxygenated conditions.
