TCI C0671 Cholesterol Formate (CAS 4351-55-7) is a cholesteryl ester widely applied in cholesteric liquid crystal research. Its rigid steroid core combined with a short ester group gives rise to characteristic mesomorphic behaviour and selective light reflection. The material is commonly blended with other cholesteryl esters to tune the helical pitch of experimental liquid crystal formulations. Supplied in a 10 g pack, it suits laboratory-scale material science studies and early-stage functional film development.
