In recent years low molecular mass organic gelators (LMOGs) have gained increasing
interest as an alternative biomaterial to polymer derived gels, with potential applications in …

Organogels are semi-solid systems, in which an organic liquid phase is immobilized by a
three-dimensional network composed of self-assembled, intertwined gelator fibers. Despite …

Hydrogels and organogels are semi-solid systems, in which a liquid phase is immobilized by
a three-dimensional network composed of self-assembled, intertwined polymer/gelator …

The 1H NMR study of supramolecular gels formed by two organogelators derived from
valine is described. The analysis of the variation of chemical shift values and relaxation …

In the last decade, interest in physical organogels has grown rapidly with the discovery and
synthesis of a very large number of diverse molecules, which can gel organic solvents at low …

The solvation dynamics of water in lecithin/cyclohexane reverse micelles have been
determined via ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence studies. At hydration levels w 0≤ 4.8 …

We report a new route for forming reverse wormlike micelles (ie, long, flexible micellar
chains) in nonpolar organic liquids such as cyclohexane and n-decane. This route involves …

A series of polar solvents have been studied in order to reveal those capable of producing
the thickening effect on hydrocarbon solutions of lecithin. It has been established that …

The self-assembly of stilbene− cholesterol tethered dyads into fibrous networked structures
induces the thermoreversible gelation of several classes of organic solvents. Herein, the gel …

Novel Aerosol OT (AOT) reverse micelles solubilizing formamide rather than water have
been created and studied. In contrast to water sequestered in the interior of AOT reverse …
