Here, it is demonstrated that water- soluble ABA- triblock copolymers based on poly(2-oxazolines) are capable of forming form-stable polymersomes in aqueous solution without using nano precipitation techniques. These structures coexist with micellar and unimicellar motives as shown with dynamic light scattering and electron microscopy.

This work represents a facile pathway for fabrication of a hybrid phosphorescent hydrogel based on a IrIII metal complex. The IrIII–PNaAMPS hydrogel is achieved by irreversible incorporation of positively charged [Ir(ppy)2(dmbpy)]Cl into negatively charged PNaAMPS hydrogel via electrostatic interaction.
