A triblock fluorous surfactant as a specific gelator for perfluorocarbons

Abstract

The fluorinated double-tailed triblock surfactant1-Na represents a new type of gelator for perfluorocarbons which can gelate at low concentration (1.5 wt%) both bromoperfluorooctane and perfluorodecalin, two of the most appealing perfluorinated fluids for pharmaceutical applications.
