In this work the thermotropic nematic liquid crystal 4-trans-4'-n-hexyl-cyclohexyl-isothiocyanato-benzene (6CHBT) was dissolved in phenyl-isothiocyanate and doped with spherical magnetic particles with volume concentration ϕ₁=10¯⁴ and ϕ₂=10¯³. The influence of the volume concentration on the phase transitions from isotropic to nematic phase was studied by three experimental methods: optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and dielectric measurements. The obtained results confirmed the coexistence of isotropic and nematic phase, i.e. nematic or ferronematic droplets in isotropic phase in a wide temperature range between nematic and isotropic phase.
