摘要
The rheological properties of smectic, nematic and cholesteric thermotropic liquid crystals have been investigated with the Rheometrics Mechanical Spectrometer. Steady flow, relaxation after cessation of steady flow, sinusoidal deformation and step strain modes have been employed. Highly non-linear responses for the smectic systems have been observed which can possibly lead to new areas of applications some of which are briefly discussed. © 1979 Dr. Dietrich Steinkopff Verlag.
