The correlation between the intermolecular potential in the liquid crystalline phase and viscosity was studied using a quantum physical method.
It was found that there are strong correlations between the intermolecular potential and viscosity for both liquid crystals composed of one component and mixtures of multi-components of liquid crystals.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
