Dynamic diversity of synthetic supramolecular polymers in water as revealed by hydrogen/deuterium exchange

Nature Communications, 2017
Understanding the dynamics of supramolecular architectures without using labels is crucial for developing advanced biosystems. Here, the authors show kinetic hydrogen/deuterium exchange profiles for a series of water-soluble supramolecular polymers.

Regioselective and Anisotropic Multi‐Patching of Small Microparticles via a Polymer Brush‐Assisted Microcontact Printing (µCP)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A method to fabricate anisotropic SiO2 patchy microspheres is presented using a modified microcontact printing technique. This involves a PDMS elastomer stamp with grooved surface topography, creating a confined environment for the microspheres.

Self-assembly of gold nanoparticles grafted with amphiphilic supramolecular block copolymers

Giant, 2022
Design of polymer grafted plasmonic metal nanoparticles (PGNPs) has received continuous interest due to polymer-driven self-assembly of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) as a means to control interparticle plasmon coupling in ensembles.

Helical supramolecular polymers with rationally designed binding sites for chiral guest recognition

Nature Communications, 2020
Since various helical supramolecular polymers became available, their application in molecular chirality recognition have been anticipated but not extensively studied.

Random, blocky and alternating ordering in supramolecular polymers of chemically bidisperse monomers [PDF]

, 2010
As a first step to understanding the role of molecular or chemical polydispersity in self-assembly, we put forward a coarse-grained model that describes the spontaneous formation of quasi-linear polymers in solutions containing two self-assembling species.

Spin‐Selective Anisotropic Magnetoresistance Driven by Chirality in DNA

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that magnetoresistance (MR) measurements carried out as a function of angular dependence between the magnetic field and a chiral (DNA) interface provide a valuable new insight into the charge transport mechanism associated with the chiral‐induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect.

H2O2‐Generating Advanced Nanomaterials for Cancer Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
H2O2‐generating nanoplatforms can exploit tumor redox imbalance for O2 and toxic reactive oxygen species generation, leading to hypoxia reversal, and apoptosis of cancer cells, respectively. This review highlights the mechanisms of these nanoplatforms, including exogenous H₂O₂ delivery, endogenous amplification, and metal peroxides, which leads to ...

Controlling crystallization in covalent organic frameworks to facilitate photocatalytic hydrogen production

Nature Communications
The catalytic performance, depending on the surface nature, is ubiquitous in photocatalysis. However, surface engineering for organic photocatalysts through structural modulation has long been neglected.

A mathematical model of turbulent drag reduction by high-molecular-weight polymeric additives in a shear flow [PDF]

, 2008
Drag reduction, or, what is the same, mean velocity increase in a turbulent flow at a fixed pressure drop through the addition of tiny amounts (several parts per million) of high molecular weight polymers (Thoms effect), is known already for more than sixty years.
