2. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_scanning...

   This anisotropic liquid is known as a liquid crystalline or mesomorphous state. Using DSC, it is possible to observe the small energy changes that occur as matter transitions from a solid to a liquid crystal and from a liquid crystal to an isotropic liquid.

3. Lyotropic liquid crystal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyotropic_liquid_crystal

   A highly viscous cubic phase gel made of polysorbate 80, water, and liquid paraffin. Lyotropic liquid crystals result when amphiphiles, which are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, dissolve into a solution that behaves both like a liquid and a solid crystal. This liquid crystalline mesophase includes everyday mixtures like soap and water. [1] [2]

4. Thermochromism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochromism

   Liquid crystals used in dyes and inks often come microencapsulated, in the form of suspension. Liquid crystals are used in applications where the color change has to be accurately defined. They find applications in thermometers for room, refrigerator, aquarium, and medical use, and in indicators of level of propane in tanks.

5. Liquid crystal thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_thermometer

   Liquid crystals possess the mechanical properties of a liquid, but have the optical properties of a single crystal. Temperature changes can affect the colour of a liquid crystal, which makes them useful for temperature measurement. The resolution of liquid crystal sensors is in the 0.1 °C (0.2 °F) range.

6. Eating your own dog food - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food

   Eating your own dog food or "dogfooding" is the practice of using one's own products or services. [1] This can be a way for an organization to test its products in real-world usage using product management techniques. Hence dogfooding can act as quality control, and eventually a kind of testimonial advertising. Once in the market, dogfooding ...

7. Dog food - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_food

   Part of this growing trend is the commercialization of home-made dog food for pet owners who want the same quality, but do not have the time or expertise to make it themselves. [60] The advantage is forgoing the processing stage that traditional dog food undergoes. This causes less destruction of its nutritional integrity.

8. Trisodium phosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisodium_phosphate

   TSP is used as a cleaning agent, builder, lubricant, food additive, stain remover, and degreaser. [7] As an item of commerce TSP is often partially hydrated and may range from anhydrous Na 3 PO 4 to the dodecahydrate Na 3 PO 4 ·12H 2 O. Most often it is found in white powder form. It can also be called trisodium orthophosphate or simply sodium ...

9. Cholesteric liquid crystal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholesteric_liquid_crystal

   A cholesteric liquid-crystal display (ChLCD) is a display containing a liquid crystal with a helical structure and which is therefore chiral. Cholesteric liquid crystals are also known as chiral nematic liquid crystals. They organize in layers with no positional ordering within layers, but a director axis which varies with layers.
