Stimuli responsive gels based on low molecular weight gelators
摘要:
In this feature article we summarize the recent developments of stimuli responsive gels based on low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) for which the gel-sol transitions can be triggered by other stimuli besides heating. These include gels responsive to redox reactions and light irradiations. Chemoresponsive gels are also introduced, including those for which the gel-sol transitions can be induced by reactions with neutral molecules and those for which the gel strength is improved following the addition of neutral molecules. Perspectives for such stimuli responsive gels are discussed with regard to their potential applications and remaining challenging issues.
