A chiral cationic surfactant that can form vesicle-like assemblies in pure water and fibrous
aggregates in mixtures of water and alcohols was synthesized. Silicas having helical …

Recently, ordered chiral mesoporous silica with a twisted hexagonal rod-like morphology
and hexagonally ordered chiral channels has been synthesized by using chiral anionic …

Uniform helical silica nanotubes and hollow silica nanostructures with adjustable diameters
have been prepared through the self-assembly of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as the …

A chiral cationic thickener l-ValPyBr, which was able to enhance the viscosity of water and
form loosely physical gel in mixtures of water and alcohols, was synthesized. Sol− gel …

A chiral cationic low-molecular-weight amphiphile, derived from l-alanine, was synthesized.
Templated by the self-assemblies of the amphiphile, sol–gel reactions were carried out to …

Helical mesoporous silica nanofibers with parallel nanochannels were synthesized in high
