AbstractThe static properties of nematic liquid crystals are summarized. The mean field potential emerging from the static distribution function has been used to the hydrodynamic theory. Rotational viscosity coefficients have been investigated. The Parodi relation has been shown to be completely satisfied. Static and hydrodynamic properties have been predicted on the basis of one intermolecular potential
