Dataset description

This dataset contains the data associated with the article titled “Resolving the mechanical response of liquid crystal elastomers–semi-soft elastic or auxetic", published in RSC Soft Matter. The data is mainly focused on the material properties of a series of chemically identical liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) as detailed in the article. The data includes: calorimetry and mechanical testing of the LCEs and X-ray scattering studies.
