Four low temperature solid states of long chain alkyl-and alkoxycyanobiphenyls(n= 5-8) have been obtained by special crystallization technique. The peculiarities of local molecular ordering and molecular dynamics in these phases are discussed on the basis of DTA-and kinetic data. Thermal behavior and molecular dynamic properties of liquid crystalline systems at low temperatures are of great interest. Lowering the temperature led to stabilization. solid state polymorphism is a particular feature of mesogenic compounds'. The variety of molecular organization in liquid crystalline mesophases of long chain alkyl-and alkoxycyanobiphenyls is closely connected with their solid phase structures.It has been shown by DTA-method that mesogenic alkylcyanobiphenyls:CSHIi-C6H4-C6H4-CN (5CB)
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.
