Abstract
This work presents our investigations of mezomorphic properties of two polymorphic liquid crystals, namely, 4-nonyloxy-4-butoxyphenyl benzoa te and N-(-4-heptyloxybenzylidene-4-butylaniline) in a wide temperatur e range, particularly, in the phase transition regions. By means of an original Experimental method. the heterophase regions and also the ph ase transition temperatures have been determined for these materials w ith high accuracy. These phase transition intervals have been analyzed using a mean field model.
