Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have demonstrated development of intelligent nanofibers capable of reacting the dynamic fluid flows generated by the sound of music with an objective to develop a new science which combines chemistry and acoustics. We have newly synthesized sound-responsive supramolecular nanofibers composed of dye molecules containing long alkyl chains and functional groups that allow hydrogen bonding. These nanofibers exhibited sound-induced alignments in a solution with higher response than the previous examples to allow dynamic alignments in harmony with the sound of music. Further, we have succeeded in synthesizing a novel supramolecular ladder polymer, having high linearity and rigidity, from a zinc porphyrin polymer and a bidentate ligand. It has a potential of higher responsiveness for the dynamic fluid flows.
