  1. aThe feed units obtained a theoretical hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value for all macro-RAFT agent around 16, determined by the Griffin’s rule: HLB = 20 × Mh hydrophilic part/Mw (hydrophilic part + hydrophobic part), where Mh is the molecular weight of the hydrophilic block and Mw is the molecular weight of the surfactant. bDetermined by SEC in THF (Calibration Sty). Detailed polymerization conditions are provided in Table S1.
