Study of Organic Self-Assembled Nanosystems by Means of High-Frequency ESR/ENDOR: The Case of Oil Asphaltenes

详细

An approach to investigate self-assembly of oil disperse systems based on high-field electron nuclear double resonance has been suggested. As exemplified by asphaltenes, the oil components most prone to self-assembly, the formation of planar rather than multilayer structures has been directly evidenced experimentally. The suggested method can be applied to elucidate the self-assembly mechanism in wide range of organic objects.
