54. The correlation length (ξ) has been calculated by fitting the peak with a Lorentzian distribution function and using the Scherrer equation as reported in ref 55: ξ = 0.89λ/(ω̄ COS θ), wherein λ is the wavelength of the X-rays, ω̄ is the full width at half maximum of the peak in radians, and θ is Bragg angle of the maximum of the peak.

62. After shear alignment of the samples, all diffraction peaks split up in two opposing maxima that align in the same direction on the two-dimensional detector. See Supporting Information for details.
63. The density of pure 1 was calculated at 100°C from the X-ray diffraction data. The value for PPI-dendr is the room temperature value reported by the supplier.

65. For example, the density of a 1:1 molar mixture of propionic acid (ρ = 0.993 g/mL) and ethanamine (ρ = 0.689 g/mL) is 1.018 g/mL at 27°C.
