Poly Bolaamphiphilic

Fig. 6 Binding free energies -AG° as a function of the lengths of the hydrophobic binding sites, quantified by the number of methylene groups n(CH2), for (filled circle) bola-amphiphiles, a, co-diaminoalkanes, and (open circle) poly-bolaamphiphiles, poly(imino-oligomethylene)s at pH 6.7 and 25°C, determined by ITC [119]...

Aside from the already mentioned case of PAH/PSS multilayers, the effect of molar mass has also been studied in the case of polyaniline/PSS multilayers [123] (Figure 6(b)) no dependence on the molar mass of PSS was found when it was varied from 5,000 to 1,000,000. Very weak dependence on the molar mass of the polycation has been observed in the case of PAH/bolaamphiphiles multilayers [185]. Interestingly, even poly(thiophene-3-acetic acid) oligomers (Figure 6(b)) of only 8 to 12 repeat units may be useful to assemble multilayers [160].
