Liquid-crystalline composites for point temperature measurements
Journal Title: Bulletin of the Military University of Technology - Year 2017, Vol 66, Issue 2
Abstract
The application of cholesteric liquid crystals and composites containing them for visualization of thermal field and temperature measurement is very well known. Despite all disadvantages as limited precision and adhesion to the studied surface, this method is still of interest. In this work, we present the results of preliminary studies on polymer-dispersed cholesteric liquid crystal (PDCLC) composites designed for visualization and measurement of point temperature changes which can be used in medical diagnostics. Basing on the results of former studies, the perspective PDCLC preparation method as well as high-performance liquid-crystalline chiral nematics were obtained and applied. The microencapsulation in poly(vinyl, alcohol) has been chosen as the method of PDCLC preparation while as liquid-crystalline materials the chiral nematics were adopted. Keywords: material science, liquid-crystalline composites, medical thermography
