The molecular dynamics of the triphenylene-based discotic liquid crystal HAT6 is investigated by broadband dielectric spectroscopy, advanced dynamical calorimetry and neutron scattering. Differential scanning calorimetry in combination with X-ray scattering reveals that HAT6 has a plastic crystalline phase at low temperatures, a hexagonally ordered liquid crystalline phase at higher temperatures and undergoes a clearing transition at even higher temperatures. The dielectric spectra show several relaxation processes: a localized γ-relaxation at lower temperatures and a so called α2-relaxation at higher temperatures. The relaxation rates of the α2-relaxation have a complex temperature dependence and bear similarities to a dynamic glass transition. The relaxation rates estimated by Hyper DSC, Fast Scanning calorimetry and AC Chip calorimetry have a different temperature dependence than the dielectric α2-relaxation and follow the VFT-behavior characteristic for glassy dynamics. Therefore, this process is called α1-relaxation. Its relaxation rates show a similarity with that of polyethylene. For this reason, the α1-relaxation is assigned to the dynamic glass transition of the alkyl chains in the intercolumnar space. Moreover, this process is not observed by dielectric spectroscopy, which supports its assignment. The α2-relaxation is assigned to small scale translatorial and/or small angle fluctuations of the cores. The neutron scattering data reveal two relaxation processes. The process observed at shorter relaxation times is assigned to the methyl group rotation. The second relaxation process at longer time scales agree in the temperature dependence of its relaxation rates with that of the dielectric γ-relaxation.
