Polymer-bridged nanofibrils in a high-molar-mass polyester via co-assembly of benzenetricarboxamide end groups and an additive Benzenetricarboxamide (BTA) derivatives are versatile compounds widely employed as nucleating agents in commercial semicrystalline plastics and as supramolecular ligands in self-assembling telechelic ...

The authors report the supramolecular co-assembly of a #BTA-end-functionalized semicrystalline polyester with a low-molar-mass #BTA additive, forming polymer-bridged nanofibril networks that enhance #meltstrength, #crystallization, and #thermalstability.
