[Polymer Chemistry] Mussel-inspired multifunctional supramolecular hydrogels with self-healing, shape memory and adhesive properties
A novel multifunctional
supramolecular hydrogel with self-healing, shape memory and adhesive properties
is successfully developed on the basis of dynamic phenylboronic acid (PBA)-catechol interactions. Thereversible nature of PBA-catechol bonds renders the hydrogel
outstanding self-healing and shape memory behaviors, and the mussel-inspired
catechol moieties generate fascinating adhesive propertie...

Supramolecular Hydrogels from in situ Host-Guest Inclusion between Chemically Modified Cellulose Nanocrystals and Cyclodextrin
When grafted β-cyclodextrin is used as targeting sites, Pluronic polymers have been introduced on the surface of cellulose nanocrystals by means of inclusion interaction between β-cyclodextrin and hydrophobic segment of the polymer. Because of the steric stabilization effect, surface poly(ethylene glycol) chains facilitate the dispersion and compatibility of nanoc...

[Polym.Chem.]A triple-monomer methodology to construct controllable supramolecular hyperbranched alternating polymers
A novel “D3–AC–E3” triple-monomer methodology was proposed to construct supramolecular hyperbranched alternating polymers.Two rigid homotritopic monomers tris(per-methylated pillar[5]arene) (D3) and tris(benzo-21-crown-7) (E3), and a heteroditopic monomer bearing a dialkylammonium salt and a neutral guest moiety, were prepared. The supramolecular hyperbranched alte...

[Chem.Eur.J.]Host–Guest Binding-Site-Tunable Self-Assembly of StimuliResponsive Supramolecular Polymers
Despite the remarkable progress made in controllable self-assembly of stimuli-responsive supramolecular polymers (SSPs), a basic issue that has not been consideration to date is the essential binding site. The noncovalent binding sites, which connect the building blocks and endow supramolecular polymers with their ability to respond to stimuli, are expected to str...

[Adv. Mater.] Two-Dimensional Protein Supramolecular Nanofilm with Exceptionally Large Area and Emergent Functions
The development of versatile materials and engineering devices requires multifunctional conformal coatings that gains increasing interests. However, few methods can achieve a stable, large-area and colorless coating on substrates with different structure, composition and shapes. We report the one-step aqueous coating of virtually arbitrary material surfaces using self-assembled macroscopic biona...

【J. Mater. Chem. C】A direct microcontact printing induced supramolecular interaction for creating shape-tunable patterned polymeric surfaces
Multifunctional patterned polymeric surfaces are of significant importance to numerous surface-based researches. We demonstrated that a commercial polymer of polyethylenimine (PEI) with rich amino groups can be used as a versatile ink for the direct fabrication of patterned PEI surfaces via a supramolecular interaction between amino groups in PEI and -OH on a silicon wafer induced by microcontact ...

【Chem. Eur. J】Lyotropic Supramolecular Helical Columnar Phases Formed by C-3-Symmetric and Unsymmetric Rigid Molecules
Unlike thermotropic liquidcrystalline C-3-symmetric molecules with flexible chains, the herein-designed fully rigid three-armed molecules (C-3-symmetric and unsymmetric) create a fancy architecture for the formation of lyotropic liquid crystals in water. First, hollow columns with triple-stranded helices, analogous to helical rosette nanotubes, are spontaneously constructed by self-organization of...

【European Polymer Journal 】Multiscale fibers via supramolecular self-assembly of a fully rigid, discotic aromatic aramid molecule
We synthesized a fully rigid, water soluble discotic-shaped aromatic aramid molecule, which can spontaneously self-assemble into multiscale fibers (from nano- to micro-scale in both length and diameter), depending on the molecular states (e.g., solution, liquid crystals and solid state). In diluted solution (below 0.086 g/mL), the discotic molecule tend to self-assemble into nanofibers. As the con...

A Supramolecular Gel Based on An Adenine Symmetrically Grafted Anderson-Type Polyoxometalate Complex.
An Anderson-type polyoxometalate was covalently decorated by using adenine on both sides. Through cation substitution, we obtained a new hybrid building block with long alkyl chains for supramolecular gels. According to the synergetic effect of hydrogen bonding of inter adenine units and van der Waals interaction of side alkyl chains, the DODA3[A-MnMo6-A] gelator can stabilize solvent a...

Borinic acid block copolymers: new building blocks for supramolecular assembly and sensory applications
Borinic acid block copolymers have been prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and investigated as “smart materials” in sensory applications. Taking advantage of the hydrogen bond donating ability of the borinic acid groups, supramolecular aggregates of PNIPAM-b-PBA were generated by complexation with P4VP. The P4VP complex showed greatly improved fluo...
