Abstract
We introduce a mean-field theory to describe uniaxial and biaxial nematic phases in binary mixtures of banana-shaped molecules. We extend our previous theory for pure banana-shaped molecules to the binary mixtures and calculate phase diagrams on the temperature-concentration plane. We predict uniaxial-biaxial nematic phase transitions and Landau points in the binary mixtures. The biaxial nematic phases of banana-shaped molecules are promoted by mixing the two components with different bend angles.
