| Abstract | Ratios of infinite dilution solute activity coefficients ( $\gamma_{2}^{\infty} )$ for nonmesomorphic solutes at the smectic-A-to-nematic ( $\gamma_{2,\mathrm{SA}}^{\infty}/\gamma_{2,\mathrm{N}}^{\infty} )$ and the nematic-to-isotropic ( $\gamma_{2,\mathrm{N} '}^{\infty} /\gamma_{2,\mathrm{I}}^{\infty} )$ phase transition temperatures, $T_{\mathrm{S}\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{N}}$ and $T_{\mathrm{N} \mathrm{'}\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{I}}$ respectively, of p-n-octyl-p′-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) show that the solutes are more soluble in the isotropic phase than in the smectic-A and nematic phases where they exhibit a nearly equal solubility. The Flory-Huggins size effect correction ( $\gamma_{\mathrm{F}\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{H}}^{\infty} )$ , and the thermal ( $\gamma_{\mathrm{T}}^{\infty} )$ and athermal ( $\gamma_{\mathrm{I}\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{S}}^{\infty} )$ contributions to $\gamma_{2}^{\infty}$ , are evaluated. Solute partial molar enthalpies (Δ$_{solv}$ H) and entropies (Δ$_{solv}$ S) of solvation show a compensation effect that reflects a delicate interplay between solute-solvent interactions and size and structure effects. Both the solute and solvent solubility parameters, δ $_{2}$ and δ $_{1}$ respectively, decrease as temperature increases. Additionally the δ $_{1}$ values undergo a discontinuous increase at $T_{\mathrm{S}\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{N}}$ attributed to the disappearance of the layered structure of the Smectic-A phase and a discontinuous decrease at $T_{\mathrm{N}'\mbox{\scriptsize--}\mathrm{I}}$ attributed to an increase in the flexibility of the alkyl tails of the liquid crystal molecules in the nematic phase. Evidence that hints at the effect of the structure of the liquid crystal solvent on the solution process is presented. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
