Phase equilibria in the binary systems of cobalt(II) caprylate with a divalent metal (lead, cadmium, or zinc) caprylate were studied by differential thermal analysis and polarization microscopy, and the concentration and temperature ranges of the existence of liquid crystals and glasses were determined. Continuous or boundary smectic liquid-crystal solutions were found to form in all the systems. The temperature and concentration dependences of the electronic absorption spectra of liquid crystals and glasses in binary systems based on cobalt caprylate were investigated.
