Abstract In this study, a straightforward and environmentally benign solvothermal method for synthesizing hollow square‐tubular polyimides (HST‐PIs) is introduced. The process utilizes 1,4,5,8‐naphthalenetetracarboxylic anhydride urea as reactants, replacing traditional toxic organic solvents with water ethanol. This investigation explores the effects of various reaction conditions, such water‐to‐ethanol volume ratio, time, temperature, on product morphology, resulting in distinct structures like sheets, columns, layers. Notably, are synthesized under specific conditions: 2:1 24 h 200 °C temperature. study attributes self‐assembly to three primary non‐covalent interactions: hydrogen bonding, π–π stacking, hydrophobic interactions. gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis indicates that PIs molecular weight predominantly ranges from 10 000 15 000. As an electrode material, square tubular exhibit initial discharge capacity 297.9 mAh·g −1 at current rate 0.1 C, coulombic efficiency 79%. After ten cycles, improves 97% maintains above 98% subsequent cycles. presents innovative friendly polymers.

Supramolecular chemistry plays a key role in the design of functional nanomaterials, and self-assembly behavior amino acids modified with Fmoc group has gained significant attention for its potential nanotechnology biomedicine. This study investigates N-9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl(Fmoc)-modified impact cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) on their transformation from 2D into 3D supramolecular aggregates. Fmoc-phenylalanine (Fmoc-F), derivative phenylalanine, primarily relies π-π stacking interactions to form structures while Fmoc-tryptophan (Fmoc-W), tryptophan, engages both hydrogen bonding due presence an indole ring nitrogen atom, leading stronger more stable Upon CAP treatment, Fmoc-F forms aggregates containing β-sheet moieties binding thioflavin T (dye) at concentrations as low 10 μM, whereas Fmoc-W 68 μM. These differences aggregation behaviors can be attributed distinct molecular two derivatives. The rapid treatment time nonthermal properties regulate direct process, promoting formation complex structures, fluorescence spectra revealing aggregation-induced quenching (ACQ). Characterization techniques confirm assemblies, offering valuable insights Fmoc-amino acid-based materials applications biomimetic materials, cationic dye binding, drug delivery, tissue engineering.
