A novel and simple platform for an efficient SERS detection was demonstrated in a hanging plasmonic droplet of Ag sols by virtue of three-dimensional (3D) SERS hotspots. The platform was a single droplet of concentrated Ag sols with analytes hung on a hydrophobically treated transparent cover glass.

Shape memory hydrogels offer the ability to recover their permanent shape from temporarily trapped shapes without application of external forces. Here, we report a novel dual-responsive shape memory hydrogel with characteristic thermoplasticity. The water-insoluble hydrogel is prepared by simple ter

The polymer architecture of telechelic or associative polymers has a large impact on the bridging of self-assembled structures. This work presents the phase behavior, small angle neutron scattering (SANS), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) of a nonionic o
Interactions of Hydrophobically Random-Modified and End-Capped Polysulfonates with Surfactants Studied by Fluorescence Technique
