Liquid crystal mixtures with non-mesogenic dopants as optimized host matrices for functional nanoparticles
Institute for Scintillation Materials, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 60 Nauky Ave., 61072 Kharkiv, Ukraine
Abstract:
Liquid crystal suspensions of 4CHCA with carbon nanotubes and laponite modified by introducing of lauric and decanoic acid as non-mesogenic dopants were considered. The homogeneity of the resulting systems was investigated by the methods of DSC, spectrophotometry, and polarizing optical microscopy. The possibility of varying the temperature range of the nematic mesophase of 4CHCA by changing the dopant concentration and its effect on the optical properties of the system is shown.
Keywords:
nanoparticles, liquid crystals, differential scanning calorimetry, decanoic acid.
