Abstract: The classical micellization behavior of block or graft copolymers in selective solvent was briefle described and a variey of new approaches to polymer micellization caused by specific interactions(hydrogen bonding, ionic interaction, polymer-metal ion coordination interaction), change of termperature and media properties and chemical reactions, etc. was reviewed. Besides, new advances in the further evolution of the micelles leading to core cross linked micelles and shell cross linked micelles are discussed.

Key words: Polymer, Micellization, New approaches, Supramolecular self-assembly
