Functional and structural analysis of a network containing a polymer structure with spiroacetal moieties and riboflavin as low molecular mass gelator

Highlights: • Characterization of a polymer network with spiroacetal moieties and riboflavin. • The thermal stability of the new compounds is close to that of the starting copolymer. • The dynamic of the system can be detected by fluorescence spectroscopy. • Significant disturbance into the system can be evaluated by circular dicroism. • The dielectric spectroscopy confirms the polymer network formation.
