2 EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Materials. Styrene (St, Aladdin) was purified by passing through a basic alumina oxide (Aladdin) column prior to storage at 4 o C. Monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mpeg45, 2000 g/mol, Energy Chemical), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC, Aladdin), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP, Aladdin), sodium 4,4-dimethyl-4-silapentane-1-sulfonate (DSS), and hydroquinone (Aladdin) were used without further purification. 2, 2-Azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN, Aladdin) was recrystallized from ethanol prior to storage under refrigeration at 4 C. S-1-dodecyl-S -(α,α -dimethyl-α -acetic acid) trithiocarbonate (DDMAT) and S,S -bis(α,α -dimethyl-α -acetic acid) trithiocarbonate (BDMAT) were synthesized according to a published procedure. 1 Characterization. The polymerization reaction mixtures were diluted 100-fold with methanol-water mixtures. A drop of the solution was placed on the copper grip for 1 min and then blotted with filter paper to remove excess solution. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations were carried out on a FEI Tecnai G2 Spirit instrument operated at 120 kv. TEM images at different tilting angels were recorded with a FEI Tecnai G2 F30 microscope operated at 300 kv. Data were acquired using FEI's automated tomography software with a tilt series of -60 to +60 degrees. Scanning electron microcopy (SEM) images were collected using a Hitachi S4800 electron microscope on samples sputter-coated with gold prior imaging. The sample for SEM imaging was 2

3 prepared by drop casting the diluted dispersion on mica films and drying at ambient temperature prior to sputter-coating. The molecular weight and polydispersity of the block copolymers were measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) at 35 o C using a Waters 1515 GPC instrument with tetrahydrofuran (THF) as the mobile phase and Waters styragel HR1, HR4 columns. The flow rate of THF was 1.0 ml/min. Linear polystyrene polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions were used as the standards to calibrate the apparatus. 1 H NMR spectra were recorded in CDCl3 using a Bruker Avance III 400 MHz NMR spectrometer at a temperature of 25 o C. Note: The samples prepared by PISA were first diluted with methanol, and then dissolved in CDCl3. Synthesis of mpeg45-ddmat. A solution of DDMAT (7.29 g, 20 mmol) in 40 ml of anhydrous dichloromethane (DCM) was introduced in a dry flask under nitrogen atmosphere containing mpeg45 (20 g, 10 mmol). Then a solution of DCC (4.12 g, 20 mmol) and DMAP (0.244 g, 2 mmol) in 10 ml of anhydrous THF was added dropwise to the reaction mixture at 0 C. The esterification reaction proceeded under stirring at room temperature for 48 h. The polymer was collected by precipitation of the reaction mixture in hexane, and finally dried at 45 o C under vacuum to obtain a yellow powder. THF GPC confirmed Mn = 3600 g/mol, Mw/Mn = RAFT dispersion polymerization using a mixture of DDMAT and mpeg45-ddmat. In a typical experiment ([DDMAT]/[mPEG45-DDMAT] = 1/1, target DP = 200, [St] = 15% w/w): 3

4 Styrene (1.5 g, 14.4 mmol), mpeg45-ddmat (0.085 g, mmol), DDMAT (0.013g, mmol), AIBN ( g, mmol), and methanol/water (6.8 g/1.7 g, 80/20, w/w) were weighed into a 25 ml round bottom flask to form a homogenous solution. The reaction mixture was purged with nitrogen for 20 min, sealed, and immersed into a 70 o C pre-heated oil bath. The reaction was conducted for 24 h under magnetic stirring and quenched by immersing into an ice-water bath. Kinetic study of RAFT dispersion polymerization ([DDMAT]/[mPEG45-DDMAT] = 1/1). Styrene (2.5 g, 24 mmol), mpeg45-ddmat (0.142 g, 0.06 mmol), DDMAT (0.022g, 0.06 mmol), AIBN ( g, 0.04 mmol), and methanol/water (11.33 g/2.83 g, 80/20, w/w) were weighed into a 25 ml round bottom flask to form a homogenous solution. The reaction mixture was purged with nitrogen for 20 min, sealed, and immersed into a 70 o C pre-heated oil bath. Samples were extracted using syringes under nitrogen at different times. The obtained samples were characterized by 1 H NMR and THF gel permeation chromatography (GPC). RAFT dispersion polymerization using a mixture of BDMAT and mpeg45-ddmat. In a typical experiment ([BDMAT]/[mPEG45-DDMAT] = 1/1, target DP = 200, [St] = 15% w/w): Styrene (1.5 g, 14.4 mmol), mpeg45-ddmat (0.057 g, mmol), BDMAT (0.0068g, mmol), AIBN ( g, mmol), and methanol/water (6.8 g/1.7 g, 80/20, w/w) were weighed into a 25 ml round bottom flask to form a homogenous solution. The reaction mixture was purged with nitrogen for 20 min, sealed, and immersed into a 70 o C pre-heated oil bath. The 4

5 reaction was conducted for 24 h under magnetic stirring and quenched by immersing into an ice-water bath. 5
