Mixtures of discotic and spherical soft particles: de-mixing, liquid crystal behaviour and relative solubility

Valerio Mazzilli et al.

Summary: In this study, the phase behavior of mixtures of discotic Gay-Berne (GB) particles with spherical Lennard-Jones (LJ) particles was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. It was observed that the GB-rich systems undergo a nematic-to-isotropic transition as the fraction of LJ solutes is increased, leading to phase separation. On the other hand, for LJ-rich systems, mixing and the transition to the nematic phase occur simultaneously. There is also a clear correlation between the orientational order parameter of the LC phase and the solubility of LJ particles within the LC phase.
