Claims20
A liquid crystal composition comprising:
- about 70 percent by weight to about 98 percent by weight of a liquid crystal molecule;
- and
- about 2 percent by weight to about 30 percent by weight of a hydrogel agent, each based on a total weight of the liquid crystal composition.
A method of forming an optically isotropic phase of a liquid crystal, the method comprising:
- heating a liquid crystal composition comprising
- about 70 percent by weight to about 98 percent by weight of a liquid crystal molecule, and
- about 2 percent by weight to about 30 percent by weight of a hydrogel agent, each based on a total weight of the liquid crystal composition;
- and
- cooling the liquid crystal composition to form the optically isotropic phase of the liquid crystal.
