Insight into the Mechanism for the Emergence of Thermally Stable Reflection Colors from Cholesteric Liquid Crystals of Etherified Ethyl Cellulose Derivatives and Methacrylic Acid

Ethyl cellulose (EC) and its derivatives are known to exhibit the cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) phase with visible light reflection in a lyotropic manner after adding appropriate solvents. Generally, the reflection peak of conventional CLCs is easily wavelength shifted by temperature. However, ou...
