Russian Chemical Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The order parameter and orientation of the “long axis” of a cholesteryl myristate molecule have been determined by the second, fourth, and sixth moments of the1H NMR line of a “polycrystalline” sample in the smectic phase. The effects of molecular diffusion in the cholesteric phase are discussed.
