Supramolecular copolymerization driven by integrative self-sorting of hydrogen-bonded rosettes
Unlike natural supramolecular polymers, artificial counterparts do not have molecular recognition processes to preorganize the supramolecular complexes before final assembly.

Tailoring the viscoelasticity of polymer gels of gluten proteins through solvent quality [PDF]
We investigate the linear viscoelasticity of polymer gels produced by the dispersion of gluten proteins in water:ethanol binary mixtures with various ethanol contents, from pure water to 60% v/v ethanol. We show that the complex viscoelasticity of the gels exhibits a time/solvent composition superposition principle, demonstrating the self-similarity of

Photoredox Processes in the Aggregation and Gelation of Electron-responsive Supramolecular Polymers Based on Viologens [PDF]
Viologen-based ditopic bis-pyridinyl-triazole bidentate ligands self-assemble in the presence of palladium ions into supramolecular polymers whose structure is imposed by the directed formation of coordination bonds. Light-irradiation of these electron-responsive supramolecular materials triggers a photo-induced electron transfer yielding isolated {\pi}

Summary: The precise sequence control of polymer chain is an important research topic of polymer chemistry. Although some methods such as iterative synthesis and supramolecular polymerization have been developed to fabricate sequence-controllable polymer,

Threading Through Macrocycles Enhances the Performance of Carbon Nanotubes as Polymer Fillers [PDF]
In this work we study the reinforcement of polymers by mechanically interlocked derivatives of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). We compare the mechanical properties of fibers made of polymers and of composites with pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), mechanically interlocked derivatives of SWNTs (MINTs) and the corresponding ...

Light-induced unfolding and refolding of supramolecular polymer nanofibres
Dynamically controlling the conformations of 1D elongated supramolecular polymers can induce functions comparable to protein folding/unfolding. Here the authors show light-induced conformational changes of azobenzene-based supramolecular polymers from ...

Phase transition to bundles of flexible supramolecular polymers [PDF]
We report Monte Carlo simulations of the self-assembly of supramolecular polymers based on a model of patchy particles. We find a first-order phase transition, characterized by hysteresis and nucleation, toward a solid bundle of polymers, of length much greater than the average gas phase length.

Competing Interactions among Supramolecular Structures on Surfaces [PDF]
A simple model was constructed to describe the polar ordering of non-centrosymmetric supramolecular aggregates formed by self assembling triblock rodcoil polymers. The aggregates are modeled as dipoles in a lattice with an Ising-like penalty associated with reversing the orientation of nearest neighbor dipoles.
