A novel fluorinated triblock copolymer incorporating 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate （EHMA）, tert-butyl methacrylate （tBMA） and 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl acrylate （FA） （PEHMA-b-PtBMA-b-PFA） was first synthesized us...A novel fluorinated triblock copolymer incorporating 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate （EHMA）, tert-butyl methacrylate （tBMA） and 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl acrylate （FA） （PEHMA-b-PtBMA-b-PFA） was first synthesized using three successive reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer （RAFT） polymerization and the subsequent hydrolyzing at acidic condition. The as-fabricated triblock copolymer exhibited an interesting morphology evolution from the multi-compartment rod-like structure to spherical structure along with the addition of a selective solution. At the same time, a visible phase separation domain could be seen in the core area due to the existence of fluorocarbon segments. Furthermore, the self- assembly behavior of the triphilic copolymer at different pH was also verified by transmission electron microscopy, as well as the dynamic light scattering.
