"Supramolecular nanofibers: Current capabilities and future potential"

Vous êtes cordialement invités à la conférence : "Supramolecular nanofibers: Current capabilities and future potential" de Hans-Werner Schmid,   Macromolecular Chemistry I, University of Bayreuth, Germany, organisée par l'Institut Charles Sadron

Resumé : The major challenge in polymer and supramolecular science, with respect to novel functional and even multifunctional materials, is the understanding and control of hierarchical functional nano-objects created by (macro)molecular self-assembly. Such complex self-assembled structures represent substantial progress in materials science and play a key role for innovative solutions. Our goal is to fine-tune specific and complex functionality across all length scales (nano to macro) through molecular design and novel hierarchically structured systems.

In this context, the lecture will cover the design and structure-property relations of 1,3,5-benzenetrisamides able to self-assemble into supramolecular nanofibers and nano-objects. The supramolecular nanostructures are tailored to function (i) as supramolecular polymer additives, (ii) as supramolecular nanofibers for filtration applications, and (iii) as single supramolecular nanofibers for energy transport.
