The role of Polymer–AuNP interaction in the stimuli-response properties of PPA–AuNP nanocomposites
The helical sense control of dynamic helical polymers such as poly(phenylacetylene)s (PPAs) is greatly affected when they are conjugated to AuNPs through a strong thiol-Au connection, which restricts conformational changes at the polymer. Thus, the classical thiol-MNP bonds must…
