Abstract

Self-assembling of relative amounts of polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based block copolymer to PAN homopolymer into a block-selective solvent yields worm-like micellar aggregates with a tunable and compact PAN core. Controlled pyrolysis and complete removal of the block forming the micellar corona resulted in the conversion of well-defined nanostructures into the corresponding carbonaceous structures.
