| 中文摘要 | 透過模擬和實驗系統性研究受限於球形內的螺旋二十四面體雙嵌段共聚物（gyroid diBCPs）的自組裝。使用單位位點鍵結流動模型之蒙特卡洛模擬，計算兩種體積分率不同的gyroid diBCPs，以退火方法建立的模型。實驗以受限於球形腔體內的旋二十四面聚苯乙烯-b-聚乳酸雙嵌段共聚物進行，這些腔體是利用聚苯乙烯膠體的自組裝形成蛋白石結構，並替換成反蛋白石結構製備而成。腔體的表面由疏水性聚氨酯丙烯酸酯和親水性二氧化矽組成，提供具有不同高分子區塊親和性的限制表面。根據球形限制的條件，從實驗和模擬都可觀察到螺旋二十四面體diBCPs的自組裝行為擁有豐富多樣的奈米結構，且由模擬的預測形態與實驗結果所觀察到的型態一致，而自組裝的結構對表面選擇性和D/L0比值定量化限制程度(D和L0分別是穩定之螺旋二十四面體相態的球形直徑和周期）非常敏感。形成的奈米結構自組裝球體在藥物釋放、催化劑、光電子器件、過濾器等應用中具有相當大的潛力。 |
| 英文摘要 | The self-assembly of gyroid-forming diblock co-polymers (diBCPs) confined in spherical cavities was systematically investigated by simulations and experiments. The Monte Carlo simulations were carried out on the single-site bond fluctuation model of two gyroid-forming diBCPs of different volume fractions using the simulated annealing method. The experimental study was performed on gyroid-forming poly(styrene)-b-poly(lactic acid) diBCPs confined in spherical cavities. The cavities were fabricated through the assembly of polystyrene colloids to form opal structures, followed by replacement to form inverse opal structures. The surface of the cavities was composed of hydrophobic polyurethane acrylate and hydrophilic SiO2, providing confining surfaces with a different preference for specific polymeric blocks. It was observed from both the experiments and simulation that, depending on the conditions of spherical confinement, a rich array of nanostructures was self-assembled from the gyroid-forming diBCPs. The morphological predictions of simulations are qualitatively consistent with the experimental observations. The self-assembled structures depend sensitively on the surface selectivity and the degree of confinement quantified by the ratio D/L0, where D and L0 are the spherical diameter and period of the equilibrium gyroid phase, respectively. The formed nanostructured self-supporting spheres have considerable potential for applications in drug release, catalysts, optoelectronic devices, filters, and other applications. |
