SEM observation reveals that the lengths of the linkers and the identity of the solvents are the main factors affecting the structures of the aggregates in the gels.Experimentally,a clear linker effect on the microstructures of the gels was observed.As example,the aggregates of 1,2 and 3 in benzene or 1-heptanol adopt structures of thin fibers,rods or lamellas,respectively. Furthermore,it was found that the gelation and aggregation behaviors of 2,3,4,and 5 in DMSO showed an even-odd effect.展开更多

The conformation also changed and crystalline degree decreased. The stannic filling rate of treated fiber was improved. Because of etching, the weight of the fiber decreased but the breaking strength changed little after short-time treatment.展开更多
