Synthesis, Isolation, and Solution Properties of 8-Shape and Tadpole-Shape Poly(ethylene glycol) and Their Topology Effect of Physisorption on Gold Nanoparticles
Properties of polymers with diverse topologies are highly intriguing. The synthesis of 8-shape poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and its unique multicyclic topology effects including enhancement of the dispersion stabilization of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are studied. By employing liquid chromatography at critical conditi...
