Herein we report transient out‐of‐equilibrium self‐assembly of molecules operated by gaseous fuel mixtures. The combination of an active gaseous chemical fuel and an inert gas or compressed air, which assists the degassing of the gaseous fuel from the solution, drives the transient self‐assembly process. The gaseous nature of the fuel as well as the exhaust helps in their easy removal and thereby prevents their accumulation within the system and helps in maintaining the efficiency of the transient self‐assembly process. The strategy is executed with a rather simple experimental set up and operates at ambient temperatures. Our approach may find use in the development of smart materials suitable for applications such as temporally active gas sensing and sequestration.

气体燃料在非平衡条件下进行的瞬态自组装过程

在这里，我们报告了由气态燃料混合物操作的分子的瞬态失衡自组装。活性气态化学燃料与惰性气体或压缩空气的组合，可帮助从溶液中脱除气态燃料，从而驱动瞬态自组装过程。燃料和废气的气态性质有助于将其轻松清除，从而防止其在系统中积聚，并有助于维持瞬态自组装过程的效率。该策略通过相当简单的实验设置执行，并在环境温度下运行。我们的方法可能会在开发适用于诸如暂时性气体感应和封存等应用的智能材料中找到用处。
