Hard‐core visualization : Bilayer hockey‐puck micelles are formed in nonpolar solvents from “sticky” rod–coil block copolymers based on oligo( p ‐benzamide)s. Images obtained by scanning force microscopy (SFM) give insight into the structure of the anisotropic micellar core. The picture shows a model (left) and an SFM image (right) of the micelle consisting of an aramide core and a poly(ethylene glycol) corona.
