A series of star block copolymer consisting of poly(stearyl methacrylate) and poly(3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate) was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization technique. The resultant polymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography and 1 H NMR. The copolymer can self‐assemble into the aggregates in selective solvents, the resulting aggregates can be used as precursor to prepare hybrid nanomaterials conveniently via the hydrolysis reaction of Si(OCH 3 ) 3 groups and the condensation reaction of Si(OH) 3 groups. Moreover, the effect of the star copolymer‐solvent interaction on the aggregation behavior was also discussed. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008
