Influence of particle size and tunable interactions on isotropic–nematic transition of block copolymer single crystal platelet suspensions

We have studied the influence of the particle size and the tunable lateral interactions on the isotropic–nematic (I–N) phase transition of a plate-like colloidal system. The particles are single crystals of a block copolymer PS-b-PLLA (BCSC) prepared using a self-seeding procedure. These lozenge sha...
