Abstract

The characterisation of the energetic properties of liquid crystals, i.e., esters with elongated molecules has been performed. The changes of the free energies of adsorption and absorption (dissolutions), ΔG, for liquid crystals have been estimated, based on the retention times of the centre of gravity of the elution peaks determined for the substances with defined physicochemical properties. The temperature-dependent van der Waals component of the free energy, γCH2, for a crystalline form of liquid crystal has been estimated by employing the Dorris-Gray approach. These approaches have been widened to mesophases, namely, the absorption(dissolution) of n-alkanes in the smectic B and nematic phases.
