Orientation of Cellulose Nanocrystals Controlled in Perpendicular Directions by Combined Shear Flow and Ultrasound Waves Studied by Small-Angle Xray Scattering [component]

unpublished
The combined effect of shear flow and ultrasound (US) waves on the dynamical structural orientations of cellulosic cholesteric liquid crystal were investigated by time-resolved, in situ small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). A dedicated channel-type shear-flow/ultrasound cell for SAXS characterization was developed to simultaneously generate a shear-flow-induced horizontal stress force and a US-induced vertical acoustic radiation force. The control of the
