Synthesis and applications of compartmentalised molecular polymer brushes
Published 2018-06-06Polymer science is rapidly advancing towards the precision-construction of synthetic macromolecules of formidable complexity. Beyond the impressive advances in control over polymer composition and uniformity enabled by the ...Open AccessArticle -
Visible Light-Driven MADIX Polymerisation via a Reusable, Low-Cost and Non-Toxic Bismuth Oxide Photocatalyst
Published 2019-01-29The continuous amalgamation of photocatalysis into existing reversible deactivation radical polymerisation processes has initiated a rapidly propagating area of polymer research in recent years. We introduce bismuth oxide ...Open AccessArticle -
Self-assembly of diblock molecular polymer brushes in the spherical confinement of nanoemulsion droplets
Published 2018-10-05Understanding the self-assembly behavior of polymers of various topologies is key to a reliable design of functional polymer materials. Self-assembly under confinement conditions emerges as a versatile avenue to design ...Open AccessArticle -
Investigating the Influence of Steric Hindrance on Selective Anion Transport
Published 2019-04-02A series of symmetrical and unsymmetrical alkyl tren based tris-thiourea anion transporters were synthesised and their anion binding and transport properties studied. Overall, increasing the steric bulk of the substituents ...Open AccessArticle -
Squaramide-based synthetic chloride transporters activate TFEB but block autophagic flux
Published 2019-02-01Cystic fibrosis is a disease caused by defective function of a chloride channel coupled to a blockade of autophagic flux. It has been proposed to use synthetic chloride transporters as pharmacological agents to compensate ...Open AccessArticle
