A series of coil-rod poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(γ-benzyl-l-glutamate)s (PEG-b-PBLGs) with α-helical conformations have been prepared from methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) amine (mPEG-NH2)-mediated ring-opening polymerization of γ-benzyl-l-glutamic acid based N-carboxylanhydride. PEG-b-PBLGs form a lamellar structure where PBLG segments pack into hexagonal arrays when frod is less than 0.28. Incorporation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) causes an increase of the d-spacing of both lamellar and hexagonal packing, suggesting that in the intercalation of SWCNTs into the PEG-b-PBLGs matrices, the SWCNTs are oriented normal to the lamellar interface.
