X-ray scattering from an organogel made from discotic triazine triamide was measured at SPring-8 at a quite wide q range of 0.050 nm−1 <q <20 nm−1. Analyses revealed (1) an amorphous nature of the molecular stacking at a distance of 0.32 nm, (2) the presence of a semiflexible rod-like scattering object with a radius of 1.3 nm and a Kuhn length of 55 nm and (3) branching of the cylinder formed at the gel state.
