Abstract

Block copolymers have a general chemical structure of one of the formulas [A]n-[B]m and [B]n-[A]m, wherein block [A] is a poly(2-oxazine) and wherein block [B] is a poly(2-oxazoline). The block copolymers have desired thermogelling and rheological properties and are useful as carrier materials for active ingredients such as drugs, cells, proteins, and other active ingredients.
