4-Cyanophenyl 4-butylbenzoate

Ref. 3D-NBA69077

Product Information

• Name: 4-Cyanophenyl 4-butylbenzoate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Cyanophenyl 4-butylbenzoate is a cholesteryl ester that has been postulated to be the liquid crystal material in some devices. This compound has an orientational response time of 10.6 seconds and a refractive index of 1.476, which are optical parameters that can be used to measure the result of an electrode surface with a signal parameter of 0.1 volts. The nonanoate form of this compound is being investigated as a possible device for optical devices with a response time of less than 5 milliseconds.
