Description

Application
8CB may be used in the preparation of asymmetrical zinc phthalocyanine (aZnPc)-functional photocurable copolymer. Monolayer films of the LCs deposited onto highly ordered pyrolytic graphite these self-assembled films display a wide variety of structural forms.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

General Description
4-octyl-4- biphenylcarbonitrile (8CB) is a low molar mass liquid crystal (LCs) which shows different liquid crystalline phases depending on temperature conditions. Under normal temperature conditions 8CB exists only as bulk smectic-A phase.[1]LCs are responsive to minor changes in temperature shear electric (or magnetic) fields and the structure of solid surfaces with which they are in contact.
