SEM observation of light control liquid crystal composite films

open access: yesStudies in Science and Technology, 2022
The structures of polymer networks in light control liquid crystal composite films (LCLCFs) were examined by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) observation. Normal mode and reverse mode LCLCFs were used for this research.

Network formation of low molecular weight ‘liquid’ polymers studied by gel permeation chromatography and stress-strain analysis according to Mooney-Rivlin

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2023
The rheological and mechanical properties of elastomers are defined by their different networks: The crosslink network and the filler network. The crosslink network is influenced by the polymer structure.

Ion-Conductive Nanostructured Polymer Films Formed by Photopolymerization of Lyotropic Columnar Liquid-Crystalline Monomers, Composed of a Zwitterionic Compound and a Protic Ionic Liquid

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
Here, we report on a new family of columnar nanostructured polymer films forming protic nanochannels that exhibit good ionic conductivities in the order of 10−4–10−3 S cm−1 at ambient temperature.

Polymers at Liquid/Vapor Interface [PDF]

open access: yesACS Macro Letters, 2017
Polymers confined to the liquid/vapor interface are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. We show that for polymers which are weakly immiscible with the solvent, the density profile perpendicular to the liquid/vapor interface is strongly asymmetric.

Theory of Liquid—Liquid Interface of Polymer Systems [PDF]

open access: yesPolymer Journal, 1976
Top of pageAbstract A theory for the interfacial tension and interface thickness of demixed polymer mixtures and polymer solutions is presented on the basis of the theory of Cahn and Hilliard, taking into account the change in the dimension of polymer coil at the interface.

Liquid Crystalline Structures Formed by Sphere–Rod Amphiphilic Molecules in Solvents

open access: yesCrystals
Self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules is an important phenomenon attracting a broad range of research. In this work, we study the self-assembly of KTOF4 sphere–rod amphiphilic molecules in mixed water–dioxane solvents.

Nanoporous Polymers Based on Liquid Crystals [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2018
In the present review, we discuss recent advances in the field of nanoporous networks based on polymerisable liquid crystals. The field has matured in the last decade, yielding polymers having 1D, 2D, and 3D channels with pore sizes on the nanometer scale.
