A LIQUID CRYSTAL COMPOSITION AND A METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Methods of making a liquid crystal mixture essentially comprised of at least one fatty acid ester or fatty acid, at least one polyhydric solvent, and at least one alkali reactant. The resultant mixture includes at least one fatty acid ester or fatty acid, at least one polyhydric solvent, and at least one salt of said fatty acid ester or fatty acid. The resultant mixture exhibits enhanced stability and aqueous solubility of fatty acids and fatty acid esters. When medium chain fatty acid monoglycerides are used in the method, the resultant mixture exhibits antimicrobial efficacy.
