We can do so much together : The stereocomplexation of complementary strands of stereoregular poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) to form triple‐stranded helices led to a fascinating array of PMMA stereocomplex morphologies. The different polymer‐helix assemblies were constructed from a single set of complementary polymers (syndiotactic (blue in the picture) and isotactic PMMA (orange)) by simple tuning of the mixing ratio and concentration.
