The desire to increase complexity while maintaining control over every aspect of the process itself might be used as a provocative description of the developments in block copolymer self‐assembly in solution over the last decade. The community has witnessed tremendous progress, not only with regard to the design of building blocks, but also in terms of understanding assembly pathways, interfacial properties, or kinetic obstacles. In particular, the latter can be of interest (and actually turned into an advantage) if structures that are not in thermodynamic equilibrium are targeted. Within this focus review, we aim to highlight the key developments and trends that we have identified during the last five years: the development of step‐wise and dynamic processes, different means to impart further hierarchy into solution‐borne nanostructures, and a partial shift in focus towards gradient and bottlebrush block copolymers.

解决方案中嵌段共聚物的自组装问题？

在保持对过程本身各个方面的控制的同时增加复杂性的愿望可能被用来描述过去十年来溶液中嵌段共聚物自组装技术的发展。社区见证了巨大的进步，不仅在构建模块的设计方面，而且在理解装配路径，界面特性或动力学障碍方面也取得了进步。特别是，如果目标不是热力学平衡的结构，则后者可能会引起关注（并实际上变成了优势）。在本次重点审查中，我们旨在突出我们在过去五年中发现的关键发展和趋势：逐步和动态过程的发展，将溶液的纳米结构进一步赋予层次结构的不同方法，
