18. The gels swelled in pure water are broken into several pieces due to the mismatched swelling ratio of the inner region and outer one. However, the broken pieces still maintain the similar structure and birefringence..

25. A visualized evidence for the existence of axial alignment of PBDTs in the inner region of gel is the birefringent images of the gel QP-2-0.2 (Figure S3), of which the gel slice shows strong birefringence; however, the inner region of disk gel is isotropic observed from the top.
