Polymer science is rapidly advancing towards the precise construction of synthetic macromolecules of formidable complexity. Beyond the impressive advances in control over polymer composition and uniformity enabled by the living polymerisation revolution, the introduction of compartmentalisation within polymer architectures can elevate their functionality beyond that of their constituent parts, thus offering immense potential for the production of tailor-made nanomaterials. In this Minireview, we discuss synthetic routes to complex molecular brushes with discrete chemical compartments and highlight their potential in the development of advanced materials with applications in nanofabrication, optics and functional materials.
高分子科学正在迅速朝着精确构建极其复杂的合成大分子迈进。除了活性聚合革命在控制聚合物组成和均匀性方面取得的令人瞩目的进展外，在聚合物结构中引入分隔可以提升其功能，使其超越其组成部分，从而为生产定制纳米材料提供了巨大潜力。在这篇迷你综述中，我们讨论了合成具有离散化学隔室的复杂分子刷的路线，并强调了它们在开发用于纳米制造、光学和功能材料的先进材料方面的潜力。
