Molecular Shape and the Hydrophobic Effect. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnu Rev Phys Chem, 2016
This review focuses on papers published since 2000 on the topic of the properties of solutes in water. More specifically, it evaluates the state of the art of our understanding of the complex relationship between the shape of a hydrophobe and the hydrophobic effect.

Real-time monitoring of hydrophobic aggregation reveals a critical role of cooperativity in hydrophobic effect [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Hydrophobic interactions occur between nonpolar molecules in water and their experimental quantification can help the understanding of biological self-assembly. Here Jianget al. examine the kinetics and thermodynamics of hydrophobic aggregation in a bulk

Investigation of the wettability of the hydrophobic textile after mechanical treatments; pp. 118–123 [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2015
In this study, hydrophobic textile wettability was experimentally tested. The influence of the number of fatigue cycles and environment temperature on the wettability (water contact angle) of hydrophobic coated textile have been investigated.

Intramolecular and Intermolecular Interaction Switching in the Aggregates of Perylene Diimide Trimer: Effect of Hydrophobicity

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
The research on perylene diimide (PDI) aggregates effectively promotes their applications in organic photovoltaic solar cells and fluorescent sensors. In this paper, a PDI fabricated with three peripheral PDI units (N, N’-bis(6-undecyl) perylene-3,4,9,10-

Alcohol-perturbed self-assembly of the tobacco mosaic virus coat protein

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2022
The self-assembly of the tobacco mosaic virus coat protein is significantly altered in alcohol–water mixtures. Alcohol cosolvents stabilize the disk aggregate and prevent the formation of helical rods at low pH.

Polymeric Surfactant P84/Polyoxometalate α-PW12O403−—A Model System to Investigate the Interplay between Chaotropic and Hydrophobic Effects

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2022
Low charge density nanometric ions were recently shown to bind strongly to neutral hydrated matter in aqueous solution. This phenomenon, called the (super-)chaotropic effect, arises from the partial dehydration of both the nano-ion and the solute ...

Recognition of Hydrophilic Cyclic Compounds by a Water-Soluble Cavitand

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
A water-soluble deep cavitand bearing amides on the upper rim and trimethyl ammonium groups on the feet was synthesized. The open-ended cavity is stabilized by the intramolecular hydrogen bonds formed between the adjacent amides, and the introduction of ...

Globular Aggregates Stemming from the Self-Assembly of an Amphiphilic N-Annulated Perylene Bisimide in Aqueous Media

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
Herein, we describe the synthesis of highly emissive amphiphilic N-annulated PBI 1 decorated with oligo ethylene glycol (OEG) side chains. These polar side chains allow the straightforward solubility of 1 in solvents of different polarity such as water ...
