The self-assembly of the mixtures of linear ABC triblock and AC diblock copolymers in C-selective solvents is studied by Monte Carlo simulation. The effects of various control parameters, including the block length, proportions of ABC and AC copolymers, solvent quality, and the incompatibility between different block components, on the micellar structures are examined. Some interesting multicompartment nanoparticles,
such as the hamburger-like, ring-coiled-rod and reversed hamburger-like nanoparticles are predicted in our simulations. Moreover, the configurations of polymer chains in different multicompartment nanoparticles are revealed by the contact numbers between different components.
