Lakshminarayanan, Vasudevan (author), Chockalingam, Cindhuja (author), Mendes, E. (author), van Esch, J.H. (author)Properties such as shear modulus, gelation time, structure of supramolecular hydrogels are strongly dependent on self-assembly, gelation triggering mechanism and processes used to form the gel. In our work we extend reported rheology analysis methodologies to pH-triggered supramolecular gels to understand structural insight using a model...journal article 2021

Lakshminarayanan, Vasudevan (author), Poltorak, L. (author), Bosma, D. (author), Sudhölter, Ernst J. R. (author), van Esch, J.H. (author), Mendes, E. (author)Controlled localization of platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) at a solid support assisted by a polarized liquid-liquid interface is reported. Electrocatalytic water oxidation resulted in local pH modulation followed by the directed self-assembly of a dibenzoyl-l-cystine hydrogelator forming a structured hydrogel retaining the shape of the Pt NP...journal article 2019
