Abstract

The polyion micelles were prepared with poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(4-vinylpyridium) (PEG114-b-P(4-VPH+)35) and tetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (TPPS) in acid aqueous solution. Micellization was investigated by using a combination of static and dynamic laser scattering. UV–Vis spectroscopy revealed that the H- and J-type aggregates of TPPS were formed in the micellar core. Transmission electron microscopy studies of the polyion micelles show that the obtained polyion micelles take a diphase-segregated core, the polymer phase and the incompatible TPPS aggregates phase.
