The emergency of new infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, reinforces the need to control and fight pathogenic microorganisms. Along with vaccines and drugs, antimicrobial polymeric materials can play a relevant role in this area. It has been demonstrated that polymeric materials may present intrinsic and direct (by contact) antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, and other pa…
Using micelles and vesicles as models we will focus questions representing new frontiers in the study of interfacial properties using methods we have used for decades and deploying new techniques in collaboration with researchers from Brazil and abroad. Can we design (synthesize) self-aggregating surfactants that form vesicles capable of catalyzing and self-replicate? What is the role of…
Temperature responsive polymers are of great technological interest, undergoing phase separation at a certain temperature. They have potential uses in areas as Biomedicine, Environmental Chemistry, Separation/Purification and many others. Here block copolymers presenting LCST-behavior will be synthesized via RAFT in different compositions to have the polarity and aggregation state in aque…
Nanoreactors are nanometric vesicles. Their membrane is made of amphiphilic copolymers, what brings new opportunities for Polymer Synthesis, particularly in Brazil. New radical polymerization techniques such as RDRP allow one to synthesize amphiphilic block copolymers in a much easier way than two decades ago. Those copolymers can be used as building block for nanoreactors. In this work, …

Copolymers are very interesting materials since their properties combine the ones from each repetitive unit, sometimes in a synergic way. To explore new architectures and compositions in copolymers is a synthetic challenge that has been tackled in the last decades by techniques such RAFT, an RDRP variant. Even using those tools, some arrangements are yet difficult to be obtained. Here the…
