摘要

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of polymer nature on the morphology of synthesized nanoparticles. Super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) were prepared by co-precipitation method and then reacted with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane to obtain thiol-decorated SPIONs. Acrylated poly(caprolactone) and methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) were prepared, and then "thiol-ene click" reaction was performed under UV irradiation to attach two types of polymers on the surface of magnetite nanoparticles via the "photo-click" reaction method. Computational modelling was used for the prediction of the self-assembly of polymers on the surface of SPIONs, which determines the morphology of polymer coated nanoparticles.
