Conformational studies of intermolecular hydorgen bonding through induced crystal G phase innBA:7HB

Investigation of thermodynamic and surface characterisation of 4-[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)benzoyloxy]benzoic acid thermotropic liquid crystal by inverse gas chromatography

“…Due to the striking influence of hydrogen bonding on physical properties and LC organisation, benzoic acid derivatives have attracted considerable research interest in the field of LCs. [7][8][9][10][11] The use of Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) for characterising structure and interactions in nonvolatile materials was pioneered by Guillet and coworkers in the late 1960s and early 1970s. [12] In recent years, IGC has been used to investigate interactions between LC and solvent [13][14][15][16] due to the fact that it is a highly useful new method providing new insights for the physico-chemical characterisation of LCs.…”

Thermal and mesomorphic properties of ternary mixtures of some hydrogen-bonded liquid crystals

“…In order to perform this process, it is very important to obtain the detailed information regarding thermal and morphologic properties of nematic liquid crystal mixtures. [8][9][10] This study shows the experimental results performed on the thermal and mesomorphic properties of ternary mixtures of 4-hexylbenzoic acid (6BA), 4-(octyloxy) benzoic acid (8OBA) and 4-(decyloxy) benzoic acid (10OBA) nematic liquid crystals of which molecular structure is shown in Figure 1, which displays mesomorphic behaviour due to the presence of sufficient dimer concentration and are shaped with hydrogen bonds. 4-hexylbenzoic acid (6BA), 4-(octyloxy) benzoic acid (8OBA) and 4-(decyloxy) benzoic acid (10OBA) are well-known hydrogen-bonded nematic liquid crystal materials.…”

Image enhancement using virtual contrast image fusion on Fe3O4and ZnO nanodispersed decyloxy benzoic acid

“…Many studies are carried out on nano materials involved in modern technologies like display devices. Including image analysis, recently several researchers [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] carried out different studies on number of hydrogen-bonded liquid crystal (LC) materials. Here, the authors made an attempt to study the textural enhancement of Fe 3 O 4 and ZnO nano-dispersed decyloxy benzoic acid.…”
