Polypeptide-based aerosol nanoparticles: self-assembly and control of conformation by solvent and thermal annealing.

abstract：:The development of sustainable materials by employing natural and nontoxic resources has been attracting much attention over the previous years. In this work, we discuss for the first time the chemical combination between resorcinol diglycidyl ether (RDGE), an aromatic biobased thermosetting monomer, and polyhydroxybu...
