摘要：As important structural units, biomass nanomaterials have exhibited great potentials to construct high-performance macroscopic materials for broad applications by liquid assembly. However, the liquid aggregation of nanomaterials was less investigated. Here, we demonstrate that the one-dimensional (1D) zwitterionic chitin nanocrystals (ZChNCs) can be reversibly captured and released by two-dimensional (2D) planar catchers of graphene oxide (GO) sheets. The dominant electrostatic regulation strategy by pH variation drives that there are three reversible changes for the liquid aggregation of ZChNCs and GO, which were the isolated dispersion state (pH > 7), homogeneous hybridization state (7 >=; pH >= 5), and partially stacked hybridization state (pH < 5), respectively. We found there are no sedimentation during the change of liquid aggregation with the higher absolute Zeta potentials (almost > 30 mV). Moreover, the ZChNCs-GO nanohybrids have reached a maximum Zeta potential up to -80 mV, which can be explained by the ioniza-tion of excess carboxyl groups on the surface of ZChNCs. Besides, the electrostatic regulation endows the nanohybrids with rheological behavior, which is beneficial to the macro assembly of liquid nanomaterials. This work provides a new class of hybrid colloidal nanomaterials, opens the structural design dimension of macro assembly and holds great potentials in high-performance biodegradable material.
