A new kind of cationic brush‐like terpolymer is synthesized through atom transfer radical polymerization of methyl ether poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate ( mPEGMA ), poly(propylene glycol) methacrylate ( PPGMA ), and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate ( DMAEMA ). The poly( PEG / PPG / DMAEMA ) terpolymer shows interesting self‐assembly behavior with sodium dodecyl sulfate surfactant in aqueous medium.
