We report induced Twist Grain Boundary phase formation in binary mixtu
res of n-nonyloxy-benzoic acid with cholesteryl sterate and cholestery
l caprylate. The (n-nonyloxy-benzoic acid/cholesteryl sterate) mixture
in particular has been studied by optical microscopy, DSC, optical ro
tation and selective Bragg reflection.
