A new approach for the synthesis of model-like amphiphilic co-networks is introduced, and their structure is analyzed by static 1H time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods [1]. The hetero-complementary end-linking reaction of two well-defined star precursors [2] is implemented to obtain amphiphilic gels. We link PEG stars with hydrophobic poly-*-caprolactone stars (tetra-PCL), resulting in the formation of an amphiphilic network. NMR is shown to be capable of distinguishing different chain species in the swollen PEG-PCL networks, allowing quantification of network connectivity defects arising from the end-linking reaction, as well as accurate quantification of inelastic material. The mesh size of the networks is studied by Pulsed-Field Gradient (PFG) NMR, using dextrans as hydrophilic probe molecules for the network swollen in selective solvents. Furthermore, we performed measurements using small-angle x-ray scattering and 1H MAS recoupling NMR for information on the properties of the selectively swollen networks, e.g., estimates for the correlation length of PCL domains, and chem. shift-specific information about the chain dynamics.
