Abstract
The structure of mixed amide solvents used for the preparation of polyimide Langmuir-Blodgett films and the structural organization of water, on which nanofilms are formed, have been studied by polarized light scattering. Fluctuation supramolecular structures are found to exist in water and in its mixtures with amide solvents, and the dimensions of the structures are comparable with the light wavelength. When a mixture contains more than 20 vol % water, associates show microanisotropic properties. In snowmelt water, the dimensions of associates are larger than those in distilled water. In the DMAA-water mixture, the dimensions of supramolecular structures are virtually independent of composition.
