Induction of smectic a phases and cubic phases in binary systems of new hexacatenar substances

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10587259508038690

It is shown that in binary systems of hexacatenar (phasmidic) compounds with relatively short rod-shaped compounds smectic A phases can be induced provided that the rod-like component acts as an electron acceptor and the hexacatenar compound is a weak ele
