Like a doughnut with a raspberry filling : ABC triblock copolymers, composed of a hydrophilic block with morpholinium units (blue in the picture), a hydrophobic hydrocarbon block (red), and a hydrophobic fluorocarbon‐rich block (black), self‐assemble in water to form multicompartment micelles with a hydrophilic corona and a hydrophobic core with nanometer‐scale subdomains.
