Polymer‐Wrapped Peptide Nanotubes: Peptide‐Grafted Polymer Mass Impacts Length and Diameter

The external structure of polymer‐wrapped nanotubes resembles that of small nanorods with a core/shell morphology, where the core consists of a self‐assembled peptide nanotube surrounded by a soft polymeric coat. The length and the diameter of the nanorods are investigated as a function of the molar mass of the peptide‐grafted macromolecules by statistical atomic force microscopy cross‐section analysis of dry nanorods adsorbed to a solid...
