- This paper reports the incorporation of a molecular recognition process to form emergent and intricate supramolecular polymer helices from oligomers. The analysis of small-angle X-ray scattering data was instrumental in characterising the helices. Here, a new piece of software, the “SPONGE”, was used to model the small-angle scattering (SAS) signals. This “SPONGE”, was written by long term collaborator, Brian Pauw (BAM, Germany), and can simulate SAS data from any drawable object and was shown to additionally allow for the simulation of structural dynamics – which has never been done before.
