Glucose-cored poly(aryl ether) dendron based low molecular weight gels: pH controlled morphology and hybrid hydrogel formation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We designed poly(aryl ether) dendron based transparent hydrogels containing glucose moiety, which undergoes in situ transition from nanofibers to spherical aggregates, upon pH variation. The process is reversible and the assembled structures have been characterized by DLS and SEM. More importantly, efficient dispersion of graphene oxide results in lower CGC (0.08 wt%) value and higher mechanical strength, compared to the native gel.

Surface Molecular Tailoring Using pH-Switchable Supramolecular Dendron-Ligand Assemblies
The rational design of materials with tailored properties is of paramount importance for a wide variety of biological, medical, electronic and optical applications. Here we report molecular level control over the spatial distribution of functional groups on surfaces utilizing self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of pH-switchable surface-appended pseudorotaxanes. The supramolecular systems were cons...
متن کاملpH Sensitive Hydrogel Based Acrylic Acid for Controlled Drug Release
Hydrogels, due to their unique potentials such as high-water content and hydrophilicity are interest for the controlled release of drug molecules. The present study aims to create a controlled-release system through the preparation and characterization of hydrogels based on pH-sensitive polymers such as poly (acrylic acid). Poly (acrylic acid), p(AA), hydrogel has been synthesized by radical po...
متن کاملResponsive supramolecular gels constructed by crown ether based molecular recognition.
Responsive supramolecular gels were constructed from crown ether terminated four-arm star poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL-DB24C8) and dibenzylammonium-terminated two-arm PCL-DBAS (see scheme), exploiting the formation of pseudorotaxane linkages between crown ether and ammonium moieties. The resultant supramolecular gels exhibit thermo- and pH-induced reversible gel-sol transition.
متن کاملSupramolecular design for two-component hydrogels with intrinsic emission in the visible region.
We report, for the first time, an in situ formation of two-component hydrogels from pyridine derivatives of poly(aryl ether) dendrons and tartaric acid. The two-component system (dendron + acid) undergoes J-type aggregation, leading to fibrillar type self-assembly in THF-water mixture along with blue (470 nm) and green (500 nm) intrinsic emissions.

The design and preparation of new polyester dendrimer, poly(ethylene oxide) hybrid systems for drug delivery and related therapeutic applications, are described. These systems consist of two covalently attached polyester dendrons, where one dendron provides multiple functional handles for the attachment of therapeutically active moieties, while the other is used for attachment of solubilizing p...
