TCI C0675 Cholesterol Myristate (CAS 1989-52-2) is a long-chain cholesteryl ester frequently used as a reference material in cholesteric liquid crystal research. Its fourteen-carbon acyl chain strongly influences intermolecular packing and the temperature range over which mesophases appear. Blended with shorter-chain cholesteryl esters, it helps researchers tune helical pitch and design temperature-responsive optical systems. It is offered in 10 g and 25 g pack sizes to match different laboratory workloads.
