Non-native three-dimensional block copolymer morphologies
Nature Communications, 2016 Molecules can self-assemble to form ordered phases with defined shape and periodicity, but there are a limited set of morphologies reported. Here, the authors have manipulated block copolymer thin films via an iterative assembly process to form a diverse

Self-Assembly of Supramolecules Consisting of Octyl Gallate Hydrogen Bonded to Polyisoprene-block-poly(vinylpyridine) Diblock Copolymers [PDF]
, 2004 Synchrotron radiation was used to investigate the self-assembly in two comb-shaped supramolecules systems consisting of octyl gallate (OG), i.e., 1-octyl-3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate, hydrogen bonded to the pyridine groups of polyisoprene-block-poly ...

Interconnected Porous Hydrogels with Tunable Anisotropy Through Aqueous Emulsion Bioprinting
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D bioprintable microporous bioink is developed using an aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic biopolymers. The ATPS bioink enables the fabrication of interconnected porous architectures with up to 70% porosity, supporting long‐term cell viability and 3D cell alignment, enabling a simultaneous generation of ...
