Abstract

X-ray diffraction experiments on smectic A and C forming thermotropic liquid crystals reveal that the smectic layer spacing increases with the addition of organic solvents to the host material. The rate of this increase indicates the formation of an organic lyotropic lamellar liquid crystal phase in which the solvent is intercalated between the smectic layers of the host liquid crystal.
