Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel bottlebrushes with semi-flexible and helical cellulose backbones have been synthesized and their self-assembly toward mesoscopic hierarchical structure has been studied. Polyethylene glycol and polystyrene covalently linked to cellulose regioselectively were used to convey periodic nanostructures in solution or film. It should be emphasized that we established a new route for the synthesis of two Janus-type cellulosic bottlebrushes for the first time.
