Structure Calculation of an Elastic Hydrogel from Sonication of Rigid Small Molecule Components

摘要

The formation of hydrogels by the noncovalent assembly of organic molecules into nanoscale,cross-linked fibrous aggregates is highly topical and has been recently reviewed.Hydrogels have wide-ranging potential applications in tissue engineering,as vehicles for controlled drug delivery,in the templated synthesis of nanoparticles and inorganic nano-structures,in template polymerization,and in pollutant capture and removal.
