Abstract
Internal friction measurements were made for glass and metal samples covered with thin layer of liquid crystal MBBA, NPOOB and CN. The measurements were performed with the torsion pendulum in the frequency range 1
÷ 40 Hz and heating rate < 1° C/min. The thin liquid crystal layer on the surface of solid sample causes the appearence of distinct maxima in the internal friction spectrum Q-1(T) and large changes of modulus G. The temperatures of melting and phase transitions for the investigated liquid crystal are close to the temperatures of the maxima in the spectrum Q-1(T).
