Effect of hygroscopicity of the metal salts on the formation and air stability of lyotropic liquid crystalline mesophases in hydrated salt-surfactant systems
(Elsevier, 2014-11-01)It is known that alkali, transition metal and lanthanide salts can form lyotropic liquid crystalline (LLC) mesophases with non-ionic surfactants (such as CiH2i+1(OCH2CH2)jOH, denoted as CiEj). Here we combine several ... -
Lyotropic liquid crystal to soft mesocrystal transformation in hydrated salt-surfactant mixtures
(Wiley, 2013)Hydrated CaCl2, LiI, and MgCl2 salts induce self-assembly in nonionic surfactants (such as C12H 25(OCH2CH2)10OH) to form lyotropic liquid-crystalline (LLC) mesophases that undergo a phase transition to a new type of soft ... -
A new lyotropic liquid crystalline system: oligo(ethylene oxide) surfactants with [M(H2O)n]Xm transition metal complexes
(Wiley, 2001)Coordinated water molecules induce the aggregation and self-assembly of the lyotropic liquid crystalline phase formed from non-ionic surfactants CnH2n+1(CH2CH2O)mOH and transition metal aqua complexes ([Ni(H2O)6](NO3)2, ... -
Non-covalent interactions between carbon nanotubes and conjugated polymers
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011)Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are interest to many different disciplines including chemistry, physics, biology, material science and engineering because of their unique properties and potential applications in various areas ... -
Salt-acid-surfactant lyotropic liquid crystalline mesophases: synthesis of highly transparent mesoporous calcium hydroxyapatite thin films
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2016)Even though calcium hydroxyapatite [Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAp] is one of the most investigated materials in the literature, the synthesis of mesoporous transparent thin film of HAp has not yet been reported. We show herein that ...
