The appearance of a gel at various size scales. At the nanometric scale, the gel is a network of aggregates (usually fibers, tubes, etc.) that are formed thanks to spontaneous interactions among molecules (building blocks) of different nature. By changing chemically, the building blocks or the environmental parameters, the self-assembly can be controlled to obtain different on demand supramolecular nanostructures.
