Synthesis and self-assembly of partially sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone)s and their role in the formation of Cu 2 S nanowires

Partially sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone)s was synthesized by one-step S N Ar copolymerization and self-assembled into spherical micelles in aqueous solutions, which assisted formation of Cu 2 S nanowires on various substrates.
