Summary: A new type of nanomaterial prepared from ternary systems polymer/bicopper organic complex/solvent is presented. Each binary system displays differing types of behaviour: The polymer solutions produce thermoreversible gels while the bicopper organic complex forms randomly‐dispersed, self‐assembled threads in organic solvents The nanomaterial results from the encapsulation of the bicopper complex threads into the polymer fibrils through heterogeneous nucleation . The magnetic behaviour and the rheological properties of these materials will be briefly outlined and discussed.
