Abstract:Hierarchical self-assemblies suggest routes for emerging structural complexities of soft matter towards multifunctional behaviors, however, involving challenges to design the balanced competing attractive and repulsive interactions required for the different length scales. Herein, self-assembly of zwitterionic amphiphiles were explored in the solvent-free state, where especially bis-n-tetradecylphosphobetaine shows temperature-driven reversible transition from low-temperature molecular-scale self-assemblies to… Show more
