In nature, a number of key biological processes are driven by polymer self-assembly, for instance protein folding. Impressive morphologies can be assembled from polymers thanks to a diverse range of interactions involved, e.g., electrostatics, hydrophobic, hots-guest interactions, etc. Both 2D and 3D tailor-made assemblies can be designed through modern powerful techniques and approaches such as the layer-by-layer and the Langmuir-Blodgett deposition, hard and soft templating. This Special Issue highlights contributions (research papers, short communications, review articles) that focus on recent developments in polymer self-assembly for both fundamental understanding the assembly phenomenon and real applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mdpi AG","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45414673219735,"sku":"9783039285068","price":4165.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783039285068.webp?v=1767920511","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/self-assembly-of-polymers-9783039285068","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
