Abstract

The paper studies metastable phases of 4,4'-di-n-heptyloxyazoxybenzene (liquid crystal substance) using adiabatic calorimetry. The process of transformation between metastable and stable phases is described quantitatively. The conclusion concerns activation energies for metastable phase to stable phase transition.
