“….. In comparison to lamellar and hexagonal lyotropics, lyotropic nematic phases are less common. In recent years however the understanding of their stability has been much improved and, as a result, the pool of lyotropic nematic systems was significantly enlarged by the work of Akpinar et. al.”
“….. In some recent publications, Akpinar, Reis and Figueiredo-Neto reported X-ray and optical characterizations of biaxial nematic structures in a large class of quaternary liquid-crystalline mixtures. From these measurements, it has been possible to establish many novel phase diagrams in terms of temperature and molar fraction of the components, which represents a real advance with respect to the early work of Yu and Saupe for a ternary mixture……”
