  Abstract: Polymeric composite nanocarriers made from amphiphilic block copolymers are popular for their customisable architecture, self-assembly behaviour, and drug release control. A PEG-b-PCL/Pluronic F127 micellar composite was developed and tested as a multifunctional nanocarrier for docetaxel and curcumin administration.The amphiphilic block copolymers Pluronic® F127 and PEG-b-PCL were employed to generate polymeric micelles using solvent evaporation-assisted self-assembly. The optimised polymer composite showed good colloidal stability and uniform size distribution with a zeta …
