Abstract

We report the results of our studies on optical and thermal properties of ternary mixture of compounds, viz., laurylpyridinium chloride (LPC), cholesteryl nonanoate (CN) and orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4). These mixture exhibits a very interesting cholesteric and induced reentrant smectic-A phases for different concentrations of CN sequentially when the specimen is cooled from its isotropic phase. The temperature variations of optical-density and ultrasonic measurements have been discussed. Thermodynamical response of birefringence has also been discussed to understand: the phase stability, chemical structure and molecular dynamics of the multi-component system of liquid crystalline materials.
