Polyaniline nanodisks have been synthesized successfully by the chemical oxidation polymerization of aniline by a self‐assembly process without the use of any acid. The thickness and lateral dimensions of the polyaniline nanodisks are in the range of 20–30 nm and 1–2 µm, respectively. The influence of synthetic parameters, such as the concentration of ammonium peroxydisulfate and pH, on the morphologies of polyaniline nanostructures have been investigated.
We demonstrate that an inorganic lanthanide ion (Tb3+) or organic dye molecules were encapsulated in situ into diphenylalanine (FF) organogels by a general, simple, and efficient co‐assembly process, which generated peptide‐based hybrid nanobelts with a range of colored emissions. In the presence of a photosensitizer (salicylic acid), the organogel can serve as an excellent molecular‐donor scaffold to investigate FRET to Tb3+. More importantly, heat treatment or water induction instigated a morphology transition from nanofibers to nanobelts, after which the participation of guest molecules in the FF assembly was promoted and the stability and photoluminescence emission of the composite organogels were enhanced. 相似文献
Self-assembled vesicles, structurally equivalent to some hydrotropes, have been obtained from a Zn2+-fluorous surfactant or in the mixture of Zn2+-fluorous surfactant/zwitterionic surfactant in room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs). The existence of bilayers arranged in vesicles in RTILs would be very exciting, open several new possibilities as reaction media, and increase our understanding of the physical and chemical factors for self-assembling systems in RTILs. 相似文献
A great number of nano/microscaled morphologies have recently been prepared during the oxidation of aniline. At the early stage of oxidation, aniline oligomers are obtained, often in spectacular morphologies depending on reaction conditions. Herein, the flower‐like hierarchical architectures assembled from aniline oligomers by a template‐free method are reported. Their formation process is ascribed to the self‐assembly of oligoanilines through non‐covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic forces, and π–π stacking. The model of directional growth is offered to explain the formation of petal‐like objects and, subsequently, flowers. In order to investigate the chemical structure of the oligomers, a series of characterizations have been carried out, such as matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization, time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry, gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry analysis, X‐ray diffraction, and UV/Vis, Fourier‐transform infrared, and Raman spectroscopies. Based on the results of characterization methods, a formation mechanism for aniline oligomers and their self‐assembly is proposed. 相似文献
Summary: Polyaniline (PANI)/Au composite nanotubes and nanofibers are synthesized through a self‐assembly process in the presence of camphorsulfonic acid and hydrochloric acid, as dopants, respectively. The PANI/Au composites are characterized by FT‐IR, UV‐vis, and thermogravimetric analysis to verify the incorporation of the Au nanoparticles and determine the Au content. Structural characterization is performed using SEM, TEM and X‐ray diffraction. The presence of the Au nanoparticles results in an increased conductivity and improved crystallinity of the PANI. The self‐assembly method employed here is a simple and inexpensive route to synthesize multifunctional nanotubes and nanofibers and could be extended to prepare other inorganic nanoparticle/PANI composites.
Summary: We report an artful method to form a stable pattern of chiral polyaniline nanocomposites (CPANs). It consists of the preparation of a diazoresin (DR)/poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) thin buffer layer on an Si substrate by self‐assembly, followed by the deposition of a multi‐layer film by spin‐assembly, leading to the formation of a (DR/PAA)2DR/(CPAN/DR)n film on the substrate. After selective exposure to UV light through a photomask and the development process, a defined pattern is formed.

Polyaniline (PANI) micro/nanosheets are successfully synthesized by a template‐free method without using any conventional oxidants. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and FT‐IR spectroscopy are applied to characterize the products. By investigating the morphologies and chemical structures of the PANI micro/nanosheets, a possible formation mechanism is proposed. In addition, the influences of experimental parameters, such as the kind of dopant, concentration of aniline, and acidity of reaction system, on the morphologies of the PANI micro/nanosheets have been systematically investigated.
The parallel synthesis and properties of a library of photoswitchable surfactants comprising a hydrophobic butylazobenzene tail‐group and a hydrophilic carbohydrate head‐group, including the first surfactants to exhibit dual photo‐ and pH‐responsive behavior, is reported. This new generation of surfactants shows varying micelle morphologies, photocontrollable surface tension, and pH‐induced aggregation and adsorption. 相似文献
