Effect of Magnetite Nano Particles on p-n-Alkyl Benzoic Acid Mesogens

The magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (0.5 wt%) of size less than 20 nm doped in p-n-alkyl benzoic acids where n varies from heptyl (7) to nonyl (9) are prepared and the presence of Fe+3 is confirmed through UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Textural and phase transition temperature studies are carried o...
