摘要
Self-assembly of N-fluorenyl-9-methoxycarbonyl glutamic acid (Fmoc-Glu) in water generates metastable single-wall nanotubes. These nanotubes entangle and bundle together to form unstable gels that shrink with time and finally result in lamellar crystalline precipitates. Melamine (Mm) was employed as a supramolecular modifier and stabilizer to improve the stability of the nanotubes. Mm interacts with the carboxyl-rich surfaces of the nanotubes via H-bonds and static electronic forces to diminish the high affinity of individual nanotubes and facilitate Fmoc-Glu supergelation (critical gelation concentration <0.1wt%). Although the basic process of nanotube formation is not disturbed, Mm inverts the supramolecular helicity of nanotubes from P to M.
