SOLID 'LIQUID CRYSTAL' FILMS OF POLY-GAMMA-BENZYL-L-GLUTAMATE.
Abstract
Cast solid films containing rigid alpha-helical molecules exhibit a molecular structure similar to that found in the liquid crystalline phase. Optical measurements and anisotropic swelling of the films are interpreted in terms of a preferential orientation of the liquid crystalline structure in the film. (Author)
