| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded in the synthesis of gelators and thickeners from 5-aminoisophthalic acid and 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid. We studied the difference of aggregates of gelation and thickening by transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscope, and fluorescence microscope. We also clarified the existence of Newtonian fluid and non-Newtonian one by rheology and studied the thixotropic behavior of non-Newtonian fluid formed by thickeners.
Wit practical use in mind, we succeeded in establishment of preparation process. We found that commercially available cheap materials such as polyethers, polyesters, and polysiloxanes were useful for being amorphous .
