Description

Aharon Steffè and co-authors build tunable nanoparticles in a 2026 paper. Smart design of nanomaterials needs exact control of structure and of how surfaces react. The team made block copolymer nanoparticles in water that carry amine groups on their surface.

The amines could be counted and then linked to other molecules with high yield. One link added a dye; another added a heat-responsive polymer that switches at 41 degrees. The particles could also be assembled into hollow crosslinked shells called colloidosomes. The authors present the platform as a modular base for drug delivery, diagnostics, and tiny reactors.
