Self-healing supramolecular heterometallic gels based on the synergistic effect of the constituent metal ions

Chem Commun (Camb). 2015 Dec 25;51(99):17627-9. doi: 10.1039/c5cc08421k.

Abstract

Supramolecular heterometallic gels with synergistic properties were prepared for the first time using ligand with Co(2+) and Ni(2+), and their macroscopic self-healing has been achieved by improving the unfavorable viscoelasticity of each monometallic gel.
