FROM THE LITERATURE:
“…..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 lyotropic mixture……”
