substituent structure on the micellar behavior of thermoresponsive amphiphilic poly(ε-caprolactone) diblock copolymer micelles was investigated through a combination of experimental and computational methods. The polycaprolactone (PCL) amphiphilic blockcopolymers used in this study consisted of a hydrophilic polyγ-2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy-ε-caprolactone} block, which also endowed the polymer
