Fig. 1

Chemical structures of (A) TC7 and (B) the control compounds TC6 and DC7. (C) Images of the TC7 samples with different water content [TC7n-H1 is used to abbreviate samples with TC7: water (H) ratio of n: 1 (w/w)]. (D) Fibers drawn from TC710-H1 (i and ii); fiber of TC73-H1 injected to hexane (rhodamine B was added to the glue to make it clearly visible) (iii); fiber generated by coating glass slides with TC75-H1 and then pulling them apart (at 80°C) (iv).
