Scheme 1. Schematic Cartoon and Corresponding Digital Images to Illustrate the Sterically Stabilized Diblock Copolymer Particles in the Presence of 2.0 M Ammonium Sulfate Obtained after RAFT Aqueous Dispersion Polymerization of a Suitable Water-Soluble Monomer to Form the “Salted Out” Red Chains.

Scheme 1

A four-fold dilution with deionized water lowers the salt concentration of the initial aqueous dispersion and results in molecular dissolution of these particles, with the concomitant formation of a highly viscous transparent aqueous solution.
