Induction of amphiphilicity in polymersilica particles : ceramic surfactants

It is shown that, in general, when submicrometer hybrid particles of polymersilica are subjected to thermal treatment, phase-separated hydrophobicity emerges at particles surface; and that the triggering of hydrophobicity results in particles which show amphiphilic behavior, arranging themselves at...
