Both single and double helical superstructures have been created through solution self-assembly of cylindrical micelles for the first time. Helical micelles were formed from the co-assembly of poly(acrylic acid)-block-poly(methyl acrylate)block- polystyrene (PAA-b-PMA-b-PS) triblock copolymers with different multiamines. The helix pitch could be adjusted by adjusting the amount and type of multiamine added. The helical structure exhibits unprecedented regularity for a nanostructure self-assembled from solution indicating the presence of strong, synergistic forces underlying the helix formation.
