Abstract
A 30% by weight solution of tetramethylammonium perfluorononanoate in D2O (TMAHFN; C8F17COON(CH3)(4)) is in the nematic phase between 33 and 35 degrees C. In the presence of a strong magnetic field of 2.0 T the different nematic regions can be well aligned. By small angle X-ray s cattering (SAXS) experiments we can extract detailed data of the aniso tropic correlation between neighbouring discotic micelles.
