Macroscopic molecular self-assembly from an amphiphilic hyperbranched multi-arm copolymer is reported. Multi-wall helical tubes with diameters and lengths of the order of mm and cm, respectively, have been produced by macroscopic molecular self-assembly, and their morphology, properties and self-assembly mechanism studied in detail. This development of molecular self-assembly on the macroscopic scale is a significant step forward.
