Abstract
X-ray and optical studies in the paper show that dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid and the mixtures of its sodium salt with (i) water and (ii) methane sulfonic acid exhibit the smectic A phase. Interference studies are described in the paper to establish the molecular orientation in the droplets and batonnets.Keywords
