2. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

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

   DSC is used in the study of liquid crystals. As some forms of matter go from solid to liquid they go through a third state, which displays properties of both phases. This anisotropic liquid is known as a liquid crystalline or mesomorphous state.

3. 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.

4. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

   Superabsorbent polymer: Polymer that can absorb and retain extremely large amounts of a liquid relative to its own mass. [5] Notes: The liquid absorbed can be water or an organic liquid. The swelling ratio of a superabsorbent polymer can reach the order of 1000:1. Superabsorbent polymers for water are frequently polyelectrolytes.

5. 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.

6. Alexander G. Petrov - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_G._Petrov

   Petrov was awarded the Freedericksz Medal for outstanding contributions in the field of liquid crystal physics by the Russian Liquid Crystal Society (2004), the Outstanding Contribution to Science Annual Award of the Ministry of Education and Science of Bulgaria (Scientist of the year 2007) and the Marin Drinov Sign of Honour of Bulgarian Academy of Sciences on a ribbon (2008).

7. 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]
