Resumo

We have discussed the stabilization of the biaxial nematic phase in lyotropic liquid crystals, based on previously published articles. New mixtures were reported, as well as a detailed investigation of the role of each component of the mixtures to the stabilization of the biaxial nematic phase. The roles of the kosmotropic or chaotropic characters of the ions and amphiphiles. head groups were also highlighted. [GRAPHICS] . (AU)
