摘要

A dynamic oil-water interface generated in a double-Y-shaped microfluidic device allowed amphiphilic molecules to self-assemble spontaneously for a set period of time, leading to the creation of discrete supramolecular coordination polymers. After elution from the device, these 1-D structures gradually dissociated into their monomer units, regenerating the initial state. The self-assembled structures were maintained only under the flow conditions in the device.
