Secondary Nucleation-Triggered Physical Cross-Links and Tunable Stiffness in Seeded Supramolecular Hydrogels.
Raju Laishram,Souvik Sarkar,Indranil Seth,Nurjahan Khatun,Vinod K. Aswal,Uday Maitra,Subi J. George +6 more
TL;DR: Seed-induced instantaneous gelation is realized in the kinetically controlled self-assembled system under this study, and more importantly, the extent of secondary nucleation events and network topology is manipulated by the concentration of seeds.

Pluronic L64 Micelles near Cloud Point: Investigating the Role of Micellar Growth and Interaction in Critical Concentration Fluctuation and Percolation
TL;DR: The effect of micellar growth and interaction in determining the properties of the copolymer solution near the cloud point are identified, which are the first of its kind in the case of the pluronics.

Role of counterion distribution on the structure of micelles in aqueous salt solutions: small-angle neutron scattering study
Vinod K. Aswal,Prem S. Goyal +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, small-angle neutron scattering studies have been carried out on aqueous micellar solutions of cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) at different temperatures in presence of varying concentration of salt KBr.

SANS study of salt induced micellization in PEO–PPO–PEO block copolymers
TL;DR: In this paper, small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements have been carried out from the aqueous solutions of polyethylene oxide (PEO)-polypropylene oxide (PPO)-PEO block copolymers of pluronics F88 and P84 in presence of salt KCl.

Drug-Induced Micelle-to-Vesicle Transition of a Cationic Gemini Surfactant: Potential Applications in Drug Delivery
Sargam M. Rajput,Sugam Kumar,Vinod K. Aswal,Omar A. El Seoud,Naved I. Malek,Suresh Kumar Kailasa +5 more
TL;DR: The stability of some of the prepared vesicles at human body temperature shows their potential use in drug delivery, and several independent techniques are used to demonstrate drug-induced micelle-to-vesicle transition.
