Abstract
AbstractNanoparticle surfactants (NPSs), formed by using dynamic interactions between nanoparticles and complementary ligands at the liquid‐liquid interface, have emerged as “smart emulsifiers” with attributes of high emulsification efficiency, long‐term stability, and on‐demand emulsification/demulsification capabilities. However, only pH‐responsiveness can be adopted for the assembly of reported NPSs formed by electrostatic interactions. Here, we propose an alternative design strategy, by taking advantage of the ferrocenium (Fc+) sulfate ion pair, to develop a new type of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) surfactant. The Fc+ groups are sensitive to pH, redox reagents and voltage, imparting the CNC surfactants and derived Pickering emulsions with multi‐stimuli‐responsiveness, and showing promising applications in controllable delivery, release, and biphasic biocatalysis.
