説明:
(abstract)The non-canonical photoisomerization-induced phase separation of an azobenzene-bearing polymer is found. The polymer composed of acrylate-based azobenzene (AzoAA) and N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA), namely poly(AzoAA-r-DMA), phase separates under visible light-induced cis-to-trans isomerization at high molecular weight, whereas the phase separation is realized under UV light-induced trans-to-cis isomerization at low molecular weight. Conventionally, the origin of photoisomerization-induced phase separation is believed to arise from the difference in polarity between the apolar trans and polar cis states; thereby the direction of phase changes, either to separate or dissolute, is uniquely determined by the polarity changes during the isomerization of azobenzene. Contrary to this common perception, the poly(AzoAA-r-DMA) in this study phase separates through both trans and cis isomerization, depending on the molecular weight. The non-canonical phase separation of poly(AzoAA-r-DMA) reported herein suggests that molecular weight plays a significant role in determining the phase behavior of azobenzene-bearing polymers. This study provides a platform for the development of spatial-temporally controlled delivery vehicles and microreactors.
