Tuning the Gas Separation Performances of Smectic Liquid Crystalline Polymer Membranes by Molecular Engineering

The effect of layer spacing and halogenation on the gas separation performances of free-standing smectic LC polymer membranes is being investigated by molecular engineering. LC membranes with various layer spacings and halogenated LCs were fabricated while having a planar aligned smectic morphology....
