Lateral difluoro substituent liquid crystal based on a three-aromatic core has been synthesized. It has been designed to correlate the molecular structure and mesomorphism with reference to the difluoro substituent and -COO- linkage group. This compound was characterized by elementary analyses and spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR and 1H-NMR. The synthesis compound's mesomorphic behavior was studied by polarizing optical microscope, differential scanning calorimetry, and dielectric measurements. The recent investigation reveals only SmB phase.

The synthesis and characterization of new deuterated liquid crystal (LC) compounds based on phenyl tolane core is described in this paper. The work presents an alternative molecular approach to the conventional LC design. Correlations between molecular structure and mesomorphic and optical properties for compounds which are alkyl-hydrogen terminated and alkyl-deuterium, have been drawn. The compounds are characterized by mass spectrometry (electron ionization) analysis and infrared spectroscopy. They show enantiotropic nematic behavior in a broad temperature range, confirmed by a polarizing thermomicroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Detailed synthetic procedures are attached. Synthesized compounds show a significantly reduced absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) and medium-wavelength infrared (MWIR) radiation range, and stand as promising components of medium to highly birefringent liquid crystalline mixtures.

The 2-methoxycinnamylidenepyruvic acid (2-MeO-HCP) was synthesized and characterized for nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H and 13C NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The application of DSC for purity determination is well documented in literature and is used in the analysis of pure organic compounds. The molecular geometry and vibrational frequencies of 2-MeO-HCP have been calculated.

FTIR and Raman microanalysis may be used as a powerful combination to determine the identity, and hence infer the source, of contaminant particles which diminish yields of semiconductor components and devices. The complimentarity of these techniques arises from the underlying spectroscopic selection rules.Vibrational spectroscopic techniques are commonly used to characterize the molecular structure of bulk organic materials. These bulk materials typically represent purified fractions of components which may be further investigated with various classical instrumental techniques such as Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy. However, these classical technique may have limited value for the interrogation of small impure particles or materials of limited quantity(ng.).Elemental techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled to Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy are enhanced by the specificity of FTIR Microprobe Spectroscopy and Raman Microprobe Spectroscopy which are now used in process laboratories to characterize and identify particulate and thin film residues with the intent of device yield enhancement.

Several series of stilbene derivatives for possible use as smart additives in polymers used as packaging films have been prepared and characterized. Differential scanning calorimetry was performed on some of the stilbenes in order to determine any liquid crystal properties. Those compounds which had multiple phase transitions were also shown to have two liquid crystalline phases according to optical microscopy.

Higher homologues of N-(p-n-alkoxybenzylidene)-p-n-alkylanilines (nO.m) compounds with n = 15 and 18 and m = 4 to 10, 12, 14, and 16 have been synthesized and the smectic polymesomorphism is studied. The transition temperatures were obtained both from thermal polarizing microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The compounds exhibit a smectic-F phase from the isotropic melt, their amount increasing with the number of the alkoxy chain. This implies that with the alkoxy chain number the manifestation of smectic-F occurs with shorter alkyl chain. The phase variants were confirmed with miscibility studies

A phthalonitrile precursor 4-(3-hydroxypropylmercapto)phthalonitrile (3) was synthesized via a base-catalyzed nucleophilic aromatic nitro displacement of 4-nitrophthalonitrile with the 3-mercapto-1-propanol. A novel tetrasubstituted metal-free phthalocyanine (4) ( M = 2 H ) and its metal complexes (5–8) ( M = Zn , Ni , Cu and Co ) bearing 3-hydroxypropylmercapto moieties were prepared by the cyclotetramerization reaction of (3) with the appropriate materials. The visible spectra of the zinc(II) phthalocyanine (5) was recorded with different concentrations and different ions as Ag +, Hg 2+ and Pb 2+ in DMF and also with different solvents as dimethylformamide and pyridine. Fluorescence spectrum of the compound (5) was also studied. Temperature and frequency dependence of AC conductivity for (4–8) was investigated in air and under vacuum and were found to be ~10-8–10-5 S.m-1. Thermal properties of the phthalocyanines were examined by differential scanning calorimetry. All the novel compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, UV-vis, FT-IR, NMR and MS spectral data and DSC techniques.

We performed an experiment to characterize the four samples of main chain liquid crystal elastomers (MCLCEs) by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. Basic principle of this method is that difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature. The temperature between the sample and reference is maintained nearly the same throughout the experiment. There were four samples with different concentrations of crosslinker we have taken, namely 8%, 12%, 14%, and 16%. The results showed that the phase transition from nematic to isotropic obtained by this method had correlation with their thermo-mechanical effects.

ABSTRACTA block copolymer consisting of liquid crystalline polyester segments and methylated polyamide segments has been synthesized. Solution polycondensation of acid chloride end-capped poly(terephthaloyl phenylhydroquinone) (LCP portion) with an amine terminated poly(N,N'-dimethylethylene sebacamide) was utilized to prepare the block copolymer. Characterization by differential scanning calorimetry, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, optical microscopy and elemental analysis has been performed to verify the existence of the block copolymer that may have potential as a molecular composite material or self-reinforcing thermoplastic.

A cholesteric liquid crystal cholesteryl nonanoate was synthesized and then characterized by means of differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy. As temperature decreased from its clearing point, cholesteric phase was formed for cholesteryl nonanoate and accompanied by continuous evolution of colors in the focal conic textures. Furthermore, beautiful spherulite crystals were observed to grow out of the cholesteric phase as the crystallization continued. The evolution of the colors in recorded textures was contributed to temperature-dependent selective reflection of the liquid crystal.
