Architecture of a biocompatible supramolecular material by supersaturation-driven fabrication of its fiber network
Article Abstract:
The architecture of a biocompatible organogel formed by gelation of a small molecule organic gelator, N-lauroyl-L-glutamic acid di-n-butylamide, in isostearyl alcohol was investigated based on a supersaturation driven crystallographic mismatch branching mechanism. The approach is of considerable significance for many gel-based applications, such as controlled release of drugs that requires precise control of the mesch size.

Preferential solvation stabilization for hydrophobic polymeric nanoparticle fabrication
Article Abstract:
Preferential solvation of polymer molecules and strong EPD-EPA (electron pair donor-electron pair acceptor) interaction between solvent and nonsolvent molecules are found to play an important role in fabrication of two kinds of aromatic polyimide (AP) nanoparticles. The AP nanoparticle formation is found to be governed by a nucleation process and therefore the particle size is controlled by the nucleation rate.
