  • Beschreibung: Using colloidal particles as models to understand processes on a smaller scale is a precious approach. Compared to molecules, particles are less defined, but their architecture can be more complex and so is their long-range interaction. One can observe phenomena that are unknown or much more difficult to realize on the molecular level. The current paper focuses on particle-based surfactants and reports on numerous unexpected properties. The main goal is creating an amphiphilic system with responsiveness in surface activity and associated self-organization phenomena depending on applying an external trigger, preferably a physical field. A key step is the creation of a Janus-type particle characterized by two types of dipoles (electric and magnetic) which geometrically stand orthogonal to each other. In a field, one can control which contribution and direction dominate the interparticle interactions. As a result, one can drastically change the system's properties. The features of ferrite-core organosilica-shell particles with grain-like morphology modified by click chemistry are studied in response to spatially isotropic and anisotropic triggers. A highly unusual aggregation–dissolution–reaggregation sequence w as discovered. Using a magnetic field, one can even switch off the amphiphilic properties and use this for the field-triggered breaking of multiphase systems such as emulsions.
