Crystalline structures of polymeric hydrocarbon with 3,4-fold helical chains
Molecular hydrocarbons are well-known to polymerize under pressure to form covalently bonded frameworks. Here we predict by ab initio calculations two distinct three-dimensional hydrocarbon crystalline structures composed of 3-fold and 4-fold helical CH chains in rhombohedral (R3) and tetragonal (I4₁/a) symmetry, respectively. Both structures with 1:1 stoichiometry are found to be energetically...
متن کاملMicro helical polymeric structures produced by variable voltage direct electrospinning
Direct near field electrospinning is used to produce very long helical polystyrene microfibers in water. The pitch length of helices can be controlled by changing the applied voltage, allowing to produce both micro springs and microchannels. Using a novel high frequency variable voltage electrospinning method we found the helix formation speed and compared the experimental buckling frequency to...
متن کاملA New Carbon Allotrope with Six-Fold Helical Chains in all-sp2 Bonding Networks
Using a recently developed approach to constructing covalent network structures from linear carbyne, we identify by ab initio calculations a new carbon allotrope in R3m (D(3d)(5) symmetry that comprises six-fold helical chains with alternating sp(2)-type single and double bonds along the chains that are connected via zigzag benzene rings. This 6-fold carbene is characterized as a three-dimensio...
متن کاملNonionic diethanolamide amphiphiles with unsaturated C18 hydrocarbon chains: thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystalline phase behavior.
The neat and lyotropic liquid crystalline phase behavior of three nonionic diethanolamide amphiphiles with C18 hydrocarbon chains containing one, two or three unsaturated bonds has been examined. This has allowed the effect of degree of unsaturation on the phase behavior of diethanolamide amphiphiles to be investigated. Neat linoleoyl and linolenoyl diethanolamide undergo a transition from a gl...
متن کاملNonionic diethanolamide amphiphiles with isoprenoid-type hydrocarbon chains: thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystalline phase behaviour.
The thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystalline phase behaviour of a series of diethanolamide amphiphiles with isoprenoid-type hydrocarbon chains (geranoyl, H-farnesoyl, and phytanoyl) has been investigated. When neat, both H-farnesoyl and phytanoyl diethanolamide form a smectic liquid crystalline structure at sub-zero temperatures. In addition, all three diethanolamides exhibit a glass trans...
