The construction of stimuli‐responsive materials by using naturally occurring molecules as
building blocks has received increasing attention owing to their bioavailability …

Photoresponsive low-molecular-weight gel, a class of fascinating soft material, draws
increasing attention due to their versatile applications. Herein, three azobenzene derivatives …

A new gelator 1 that included m-methyl red was synthesized and fully characterized. It was
found that the organogel of 1 was stable in DMSO even if the organogel was stimulated by …

Phase-selective gelation of low molecular-weight photoresponsive organogelator
possessing long aliphatic chain azobenzene sugar derivatives and its applications in the …

Much attention has been paid to construct photoresponsive host–guest supramolecular gels;
however, red-shifting the responsive wavelength remains a formidable challenge. Here, a …

Benefiting from the intrinsic amphiphilic feature, natural glycyrrhizic acid (GL) has attracted
increased attention in recent years as a supramolecular gelator. Nevertheless, these works …

A novel class of 4, 6-O-butylidene/ethylidene/benzylidene β-D-glucopyranose gelator
functionalized with photo-responsive azobenzene moieties were designed and synthesized …

Carbohydrate-based low-molecular-weight gelators are interesting new materials with many
potential applications. These compounds can be designed to include multiple stimuli …

A novel two-component organogel system based on acid–base interaction showed
flexibility, high-transparency and self-healing properties with enhanced viscoelasticity …

Herein, we report a systematic investigation of the solvent-regulated gelation behaviour, self-
healing ability and intermolecular interaction mechanism of an azobenzene derivative …
