INVESTIGATING MICRO- AND NANOSTRUCTURED COLLOIDAL
SYSTEMS BY FLUORESCENTLY LABELED POLYMERS AND
PROBES

Project Summary
  • This project aims to synthesize and characterize
    hydrophobically modified and/or fluorescently
    labeled polymers, in order to apply them in
    probing the hydrophobic/hydrophilic interface of
    regular and reverse micelles and to investigate
    layer-by-layer polymer assemblies.
  • To accomplish this goal the following parameters
    will be monitored the alkyl chain length and
    amount grafted, the fluorophore content and its
    nature, the polymer molecular weight, the
    surfactant, pH, ionic strength, the organic
    solvent and the reverse micelle hydration degree.
  • The techniques involved in this project are UV
    spectroscopy, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, GPC and capillary
    electrophoresis, static and dynamic fluorescence,
    FTIR, rheometry, DLS, surface tension,
    goniometry.
  • The acquired data will shed light and elucidate
    phenomena involved at nanometric scale in these
    systems.
  • The importance of this study resides in obtaining
    new intelligent materials able to modify their
    molecular architecture in response to external
    stimuli.
  • A particular attention will be payed to
    fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) for
    getting insights into the interface of micellar
    nanocages and of thin films.
