Thermodynamic and surface characterisation of 4-[4-((S)-citronellyloxy)benzoyloxy]benzoic acid thermotropic liquid crystal
2016
ABSTRACTThe inverse gas chromatography (IGC) method was used to obtain thermodynamic and surface properties of the thermotropic liquid crystalline material, 4-[4-((S)-citronellyloxy)benzoyloxy]benzoic acid (CBB). Liquid crystal (LC) selectivity was investigated using the alcohol and acetate isomers by the IGC method at temperatures between 338.2 K and 463.2 K. The retention diagrams of n-decane, undecane, dodecane, tridecane, n-butyl acetate, iso-butyl acetate, ethylbenzene and chlorobenzene on CBB were plotted in the temperature range between 468.2 K and 493.2 K. The specific retention volume, , Flory–Huggins interaction parameter, , equation-of-state interaction parameter, , the partial molar heat of sorption, , the partial molar heat of mixing, , the molar heat of vaporization, and the weight fraction activity coefficient, , were determined.The dispersive component of the surface free energy, , of the studied adsorbent surface was estimated in the infinite dilution region. The specific free energy of a...
