Creation of Gyroid Nanostructured Polymer Films from Lyotropic Liquid Crystals Containing a Polymerizable Ionic Liquid as a Solvent

Bicontinuous cubic liquid-crystalline assemblies were obtained by mixing a polymerizable ionic liquid with a glycolipid. Polymerization of the ionic liquid in the molecular assemblies was achieved by UV irradiation in the presence of a photoinitiator, which provided a quasi-polymer film preserving t...

Zusammenfassung:Bicontinuous cubic liquid-crystalline assemblies were obtained by mixing a polymerizable ionic liquid with a glycolipid. Polymerization of the ionic liquid in the molecular assemblies was achieved by UV irradiation in the presence of a photoinitiator, which provided a quasi-polymer film preserving the bicontinuous cubic assemblies with a gyroid nanostructure.
