Enantioselective wetting: Regulating the surface wettability of materials through chiral molecules provides new insight into the design of chiral materials. By taking advantage of a reversible conformational transition, smart polymers present an ideal platform for translating weak chiral signals into macroscopic properties of materials, thus resulting in a distinctive wettability switching driven by chirality.
通过手性分子来调节材料的表面润湿性为设计手性材料提供了新的思路。利用可逆构象转变，智能聚合物为将弱手性信号转化为材料的宏观性质提供了理想的平台，从而导致由手性驱动的独特润湿性转变。
