Self-Assembly Made Durable:Water-Repellent Materials Formed by Cross-Linking Fullerene Derivatives

摘要

The fine-tuning of the interactions between pi-conjugated molecules can enable the development of supramolecular materials that have attractive properties.However,the low strength and stability of these materials,which are organized by weak noncovalent interactions,impose limitations for certain applications.Most self-organized materials suffer from structural changes when exposed to organic solvents,high temperatures,or mechanical stress.
