The enthalpy of fusion of nematic compounds is an important parameter related to the use of such materials in displays. Since no single material is adequate in nematic range for use in displays, a substantial amount of work is required in preparation and evaluation of mixtures. One valuable method of estimating the nematic range of liquid crystal mixtures is based on the Schroeder-Vanlaar equation,1-5 which related the melting temperature of a solution (Tm ) to the mole fraction, x, of solute of melting temperature T and enthalpy of fusion ΔH, and the gas constant, R.
