The underlying order: Isomerism as a blueprint to control the behavior of sugar-based (bio)surfactants
Surfactants are ubiquitous in formulated products and technologies. As one of the most important commodity chemicals, their remarkable consumption leads to the necessity of finding sustainable alternatives. Although the use of renewable sources limits the available chemical space for a “Green” production, the great variety of naturally occurring precursors, i.e., fatty acids and sugars, opens a myriad of possibilities to create biosurfactants capable of replacing the fatigued fossil-derived amphiphiles. Here, we visit the concept of isomer-directed assembly applied to sugar-based surfactants, wherein amphiphile assembly and function are fine-tuned through changes in the stereochemical and regiochemical configuration of the molecule. As such, we show how isomerism defines directional interactions and solvation, ultimately dictating the assembly of surfactants. However, a general framework to understand the structure-function relationship for these is still missing, which is key to realizing this divergent set of tools for the design of new surfactants.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
