Supramolecular polymer nanofibers via electrospinning of a heteroditopic monomer

Abstract

Driven by the benzo-21-crown-7/secondary ammonium salt recognition motif, a linear supramolecular polymer was formed from self-organization of a low-molecular-weight self-complementary monomer in chloroform. From this supramolecular polymer, nanofibers were obtained successfully via electrospinning.
