32. The shapes of emission spectra are quite different among different batches, while the same aggregation patterns from the treatments were observed. The absorption spectra of the CPNs exhibit no significant batch-to-batch variations. Difference in the emission spectra can be attributed to the molecular weight variations among the different batches, so that aggregation behaviors are slightly different. This observation indicates indirectly that the CPN formation is driven by micelle formation, which the processes are governed by molecular weight.
