High-resolution calorimetric study of a liquid crystalline organo-siloxane tetrapode with a biaxial nematic phase

High-resolution adiabatic scanning calorimetry and differential scanning calorimetry have been employed to study the thermal behavior of an organo-siloxane tetrapode reported to exhibit a biaxial nematic phase. No signature of the uniaxial to biaxial nematic phase transition could be retraced in seq...
