Abstract
In this research the self-assembly and self-association processes occurring between supramolecular
this thesis. Two of which are novel and one which has been previously synthesised and characterised. The
been explored and reported. These amphiphiles containing tetrabutylammonium (TBA) countercation and
gas states using a combination of scientific techniques. Observing these molecules in different solvent
monomer to self-associate in solution, thus resulting in the formation of dimeric (in DMSO) and extended
also studied. In addition, these mixtures of these amphiphilic salts showed their ability to self-sort which
resulted in the increase of their antimicrobial activity and decrease in critical micelle concentration.
