  1. PAA, poly(acrylic acid); PDI, polydispersity index; PMA, poly(methyl acrylate); PS, polystyrene.
  2. *N is the degree of polymerization determined by 1H NMR of purified product PtBA150-b-PMA60-b-PS240.
  3. †PDI of PtBA150-b-PMA60-b-PS240, the precursor of PAA150-b-PMA60-b-PS240, was determined by GPC using polystyrene standards and THF as solvent.
