Ionic-liquid (IL) mixtures hold great promise, as they allow liquids with a wide range of properties to be formed by mixing two common components rather than synthesizing large array pure ILs different chemical structures. In addition, these can exhibit and structural organization that depend on their composition, which opens up new possibilities for the composition-dependent control IL particular applications. However, fundamental properties, structure, dynamics are currently poorly...
Two novel aggregation-induced emission-based (AIE) liquid crystal materials of <bold>TPE-PBN</bold> and <bold>TPE-2PBN</bold> have been prepared characterized.
Small-angle neutron scattering experiments, supported by molecular dynamics simulations, have been performed on a range of compositions the [C<sub>2</sub>mim]<sub>1−x</sub>[C<sub>12</sub>mim]<sub>x</sub>[Tf<sub>2</sub>N] ionic liquid mixture system.
Clearly polarized electroluminescence was obtained from ionic iridium complex-based metallomesogens.
Abstract Blue‐ and green‐emitting cyclometalated liquid‐crystalline iridium complexes are realized by using a modular strategy based on strongly mesogenic groups attached to an acetylacetonate ancillary ligand. The ligand dictates the photophysical properties of materials, which identical those parent complexes. High hole mobilities, up 0.004 cm 2 V −1 s , were achieved after thermal annealing, while amorphous materials show mobilities only approximately 10 −7 –10 −6 similar simple design...
The preparation of mixtures ionic liquids (ILs) represents an attractive strategy to tune their properties, important aspect which is understand how the structure bulk varies with composition. In this study, small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) was used probe methylimidazolium-based [Cnmim][Tf2N] [C2mim][Tf2N]) (n = 4, 6, 8 and 10) [Cmmim][Tf2N] [C12mim][Tf2N] (m 2, 6 8). Mixtures were prepared in both contrasts, say that one component would be fully hydrogenated while other deuterated,...
For industrial applications of self-assembled wormlike micelles, measurement and characterization a micellar material's microstructure rheology are paramount for the development deployment new high-performing cost-effective formulations. Within this workflow, there significant bottlenecks associated with experimental delays lack transferability results from one chemistry to another. In work, we outline process predict microscopic thermodynamic characteristics micelles directly rheological...
