Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
We explore the use of a photoacid in a chemical reaction cycle, which allows for the controlled sol-to-gel transition of a saccharide aldehyde-based self-assembling system. The modulation of the pH with light enables to generate chemical fuels in situ, thus triggering monomer activation and gelation. Our efforts represent a promising step toward dissipative self-assembled systems with a higher degree of spatiotemporal control.
