Abstract
Liquid-crystalline behaviour of rod-coil molecules is normally associa ted with the formation of calamitic mesophases; by increasing the volu me fraction of coil segments via substitution of poly(propylene oxide) with degree of polymerization of 12 to an elongated rod, the rod-like mesogen can be assembled into cylindrical micelles, showing a hexagon al columnar mesophase.
