The structural information is encoded in the relatively simple molecular structure of chains consisting of a tertiary polyamide backbone (hydrogen- accepting) and glucose side chains (hydrogen-donating). The formation of the nanotubes should occur through bending and closing of a 2D hydrogen-bonded layer of interdigitated polymer chains.}, language = {en} } @article{SchlaadYouSigeletal.2009, author = {Schlaad, Helmut and You, Liangchen and Sigel, Reinhard and Smarsly, Bernd and Heydenreich, Matthias and Mantion, Alexandre and Masic, Admir}, title = {Glycopolymer vesicles with an asymmetric membrane}, issn = {1359-7345}, doi = {10.1039/B820887e}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Direct dissolution of glycosylated polybutadiene-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymers can lead to the spontaneous formation of vesicles or membranes, which on the outside are coated with glucose and on the inside with poly(ethylene oxide).}, language = {en} }
