Newly designed styrylimidazolium-based grafted anion-exchange membranes (StIm-AEMs), in which imidazolium ionic groups are attached to styrene at the far side from graft chains, were prepared by radiation-induced polymerization of p-(2-imidazoliumyl) onto poly(ethylene-co-tetrafluoloethylene) (ETFE) films, followed N-alkylation and ion-exchange reactions. StIm-AEM having an ion exchange capacity (IEC) 0.54 mmol g-1 with a grafting degree (GD) ∼18%, possesses practical conductivity (>50 mS...
We perform a series of Monte Carlo simulations on an interface between liquid crystal (LC) material in isotropic phase its bulk and surfactant membrane. These two objects are simulated using coarse-grained molecular models. estimate physical properties the membrane such as interfacial tension bending rigidity, focusing anchoring effects LC. According to our simulation results, when strength homeotropic denoted by parameter ξ is increased, decreases rigidity first increases ξ<ξ_{m}, it then...
