Polymer cubosomes are a relatively new class of self-assembled microparticles of block copolymers that are open porous, have large interfacial area, and carry functional groups on surface and inside the cubosome wall. In this presentation, I will give a brief overview of recent discoveries in this field and summarize also our efforts in designing polymer cubosomes with controlled shape, dimension, and chemistry. Currently, we focus on the synthesis of functional cubosomes, develop routes for their formation, and explore diverse applications including degradable mesoporous particles for agrochemistry, templating of high surface area materials, and components for batteries.
