Method for preparing coating layer having highly aligned nanomaterial in lyotropic liquid crystal matrix

Abstract

A method is described for preparing a coating layer having highly aligned nanomaterial by applying shearing force to a composite of nano material and lyotropic liquid crystal material after mixing the nano material and the lyotropic liquid crystal material. The method includes (a) injecting a composite of nanomaterial and lyotropic liquid crystal into a space between an upper plate and a lower plate in a laminate; and (b) applying a shearing force to the composite of nanomaterial and lyotropic liquid crystal.
