Supramolecular Materials from Benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide-Based Nanorods

摘要

Motifs exhibiting directional and reversible interactions have been the foundation for the development of supramolecular polymers, i.e., polymers exhibiting macroscopic material properties as a result of noncovalent interactions between the monomers or macromers. Not only is the strength of the noncovalent interactions important to obtain polymer properties but also is the propensity of the motif to phase segregate, as convincingly shown by Stadler and Rowan.
