Abstract

The different weak non-covalent interactions established between “hydrophobic–amphiphilic” fluorescent and paramagnetic organic free-radical molecules, and solvents result in the formation of hierarchically self-assembled multifunctional superhydrophobic materials with very unusual shapes.
