In this communication we report on the self-organising properties of a novel asymmetric bolaphile composed of sugar and steroidal units. The material was found to exhibit unusual phase changes in that it formed a cubic phase upon heating, whereas upon cooling it formed a lamellar phase. This change in property was ascribed to kinetic versus thermodynamic behaviour at the phase transition to the liquid.

萘酚的自组织特性。研究发现,这种材料表现出不寻常的相变,即在加热时形成立方相,而在冷却时形成薄片相。这种性质变化归因于向液体相变时的动力学行为和热力学行为。
