The suggested approach implies no use of additional stabilizers and is efficient for both initially organic dispersed small (~5 nm) spheres and hydrasols of larger (9 × 30 nm) rodlike nanoparticles. Nanospheres are introduced into the composites via replacement of a labile stabilizer used in synthesis with the diblock copolymer, while nanorods synthesized in aqueous media by the two-stage method are incorporated via phase transfer mediated by the diblock copolymer. Films capable of microphase separation leading to the formation of vinylpyridine cylindrical domains with a diameter of tens nanometers are spin-coated from the obtained composites. The content of nanoparticles in the composites is up to 5 wt %; they are dispersed and arranged predominantly within vinylpyridine domains, with nanospheres being localized near domain boundaries, while nanorods being mainly oriented perpendicularly to the axis of cylinders.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1134/S1811238218010034} (DOI).
