Abstract

ABSTRACTThe aim of this paper is characterisation of mesomorphic properties and helical structure parameters: handedness and helical pitch, of two laterally substituted ferroelectric compounds and mixtures based on them. These compounds have the same quaterphenyl rigid core and the same length of non-chiral chain – eight carbon atoms, as well as the absolute configuration of chiral centre (‘R’). Base compounds differ in the kind of a substituent in a rigid core (–Cl, –CH3). Both of them have rather low melting temperature in comparison to most of quaterphenyls, and it affects the lowering of this temperature in binary mixtures. Thus they can be used for preparation of multicomponent ferroelectric mixtures useful for application.
