Tuneable enhancement of the salt and thermal stability of polymeric micelles by cyclized amphiphiles
Cyclic molecules provide better stability for their aggregates. Typically in nature, the unique cyclic cell membrane lipids allow thermophilic archaea to inhabit extreme conditions. By mimicking the biological design, the robustness of self-assembled synthetic nanostructures is expected to be improv...
