Table 4.

Hydrocarbon thicknesses 2D_C (Å) as a function of temperature, hydrocarbon chain length, and the degree of hydrocarbon chain unsaturation. Hydrocarbon thickness expansivities as a function of temperature and hydrocarbon chain length, α^T_2DC and α^nc_2DC, respectively, are also shown. α^nc_2DC is calculated for each group of lipids depending on their total number of double bonds (e.g., 0 for DLPG, 1 for POPG, and 2 for DOPG).
