| Abstract: | Structured liquids, generated by the interfacial formation, assembly, and jamming of nanoparticle (NP)‐surfactants at liquid/liquid interfaces, maintain all the desirable characteristics of each liquid, while providing a spatially structured framework. Herein, we show that rod‐like cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)‐based NP‐surfactants, termed CNC‐surfactants, are formed rapidly at the liquid/liquid interface, assemble into a monolayer, and, when jammed, offer a robust assembly with exceptional mechanical properties. Plateau–Rayleigh (PR) instabilities of a free‐falling jet of an aqueous medium containing the CNCs into a toluene solution of amine end‐functionalized polystyrene are completely suppressed, allowing the jetting of aqueous tubules that are stabilized when the CNC‐surfactants are jammed at the interface. These results open a new platform for the additive manufacturing techniques, for example, three‐dimensional (3D) printing, of all‐liquid constructs. |
