• closedAccess   pH-Tunable Hydrogelators for Water Purification: Structural Optimisation and Evaluation 

      Greenland, Barnaby W.; Wood, Daniel M.; Acton, Aaron L.; Rodríguez Llansola, Francisco; Murray, Claire A.; Cardin, Christine J.; Miravet, Juan; Escuder, Beatriu; Hamley, Ian W.; Hayes, Wayne Wiley (2012-02)
      A focused library of potential hydrogelators each containing two substituted aromatic residues separated by a urea or thiourea linkage have been synthesised and characterized. Six of these novel compounds are highly efficient ...
    • closedAccess   Selective and highly efficient dye scavenging by a pH-responsive molecular hydrogelator 

      Rodríguez Llansola, Francisco; Escuder, Beatriu; Miravet, Juan; Hermida Merino, Daniel; Hamley, Ian W.; Cardin, Christine J.; Hayes, Wayne Royal Society of Chemistry (2010)
      A structurally simple low molecular weight hydrogelator derived from isophthalic acid forms robust pH-responsive hydrogels capable of highly efficient and selective dye adsorption.
    • closedAccess   Self-Assembly Studies of a Chiral Bisurea-Based Superhydrogelator 

      Rodríguez Llansola, Francisco; Hermida Merino, Daniel; Nieto Ortega, Belén; Ramírez, Francisco J.; López Navarrete, Juan T.; Casado, Juan; Hamley, Ian W.; Escuder, Beatriu; Hayes, Wayne; Miravet, Juan Wiley (2012-11)
      A chiral bisurea-based superhydrogelator that is capable of forming supramolecular hydrogels at concentrations as low as 0.2 mM is reported. This soft material has been characterized by thermal studies, rheology, X-ray ...
    • openAccess   Structural and morphological studies of the dipeptide based L-Pro-L-Val organocatalytic gels and their rheological behaviour 

      Escuder, Beatriu; Rodríguez-Llansola, Francisco; Hamley, Ian W.; Miravet, Juan; Hayes, Wayne Royal Society of Chemistry (2012-07)
      Organocatalytic gels based on the dipeptide sequence L-Pro-L-Val have been studied by two different FTIR techniques. This suggests a different arrangement of the gelator molecules in the self-assembled fibers depending on ...
