14. (14) Preliminary experiments seem to indicate that the hexatic liquid condensed phases in octadecanol behave elastic under low shear rates and that it is not always justified to treat the liquid condensed phases as a 2d fluid.
15. 2′ and LS phase vanishes. It has been shown by Lautz et al. (ref 16) that the transition is of weekly first order. Therefore, the line tension is very low and can be neglected.
