Synthesis and Self-Assembly of Poly(<i>N</i>-Vinylcaprolactam)-<i>b</i>-Poly(ε-Caprolactone) Block Copolymers via the Combination of RAFT/MADIX and Ring-Opening Polymerizations

Well-defined amphiphilic, biocompatible and partially biodegradable, thermo-responsive poly(<i>N</i>-vinylcaprolactam)-<i>b</i>-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PNVCL-<i>b</i>-PCL) block copolymers were synthesized by combining reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfe...
