For slower heating, the sponge phase is nucleated as in the case of NPS, but now the lamellar phase forms a stable cellular structure composed of a lamellar cell wall (Fig. 2c and d, φ=19.9 wt% C ...

X-ray diffraction studies showed that this phase—dubbed the M2 phase—was both layered and highly tilted, suggesting the possibility of a new smectic phase. We report on studies of freely suspended ...

It undergoes the vitrification even at very slow cooling, making it a good material to obtain easily the smectic CA* glass. The crystal phase of W-1000 does not form on cooling.
