Abstract:
Cellulose oligomers with a terminal alkyl group at the reducing end formed mechanically robust crystalline monolayers via self-assembly against water surfaces from aqueous solutions. The unique properties of the monolayers resulted in anisotropic deformation or manipulation of the aqueous solution droplets.
