Abstract

Binary mixtures with both the components are non-mesogenic becomes an interesting and enlighten feature when they exhibit mesomorphism at ambient temperature. In the present study, we report five binary systems where two non-mesogenes exhibit smectic and/or nematic mesophases at ambient temperature over a certain range of concentration. All the binary systems contain one non-mesogenic naphthalene derivative. The study provides many binary systems of non-mesogens which exhibit mesophases at ambient temperatures. The terminal nitro chain is found to be responsible for the induction of both the nematogenic and smectogenic tendency in the present investigation of binary systems with two ‘compatible' component.
