Metastable two-component gel - exploring the gel-crystal interface

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

This paper reports a two-component system in which molecular recognition rapidly leads to the formation of a homogeneous fibrillar gel that, over a period of hours, aggregates via fibre - fibre interactions to yield microcrystals - providing insight into the relationship between nanoscale gels and microscale crystals.
