Rod‐like polymers of overall cylindrical shape dressed with a skin of flexible short side chains have been shown to be versatile building blocks for supramolecular structures. This paper describes the production of “molecular composites” based on such rigid rods, the mesoscopic structure of which is shown in the Figure. magnified image
