stable zipping of the micelles. Multilayer micelles’ assemblies were also obtained by increasing themicelle concentration through the solvent evaporation. The system showed impressive reversibility asproved by simple wash-off step carried out in cyclohexane. The reorganization of PODMA block uponheating while conserving the overall morphology further presents an oppourtunity to obtain atemperature mediated self-healing coating system. The aforementioned concept of zipping-assembly ofmicelles combines a self-assembly stage following “classical” rules and a reversible lock-in of the globalmorphology through a zipper mechanism.122
