The critical temperature at the consolute point where two smectic A phases of different compositions phase separate has been measured for binary systems which combine one compound from a newly synthesized series of fluorinated mesogens with one homologue from the commercially available cyanobiphenyl family. Taking advantage of the regular evolution of the layer spacings within a series of homologues, this systematic analysis identifies a clear connection between miscibility and difference in layer spacings of the smectic A phases of the pure compounds. However, additional data obtained on significantly different systems show the non-universal character of this analysis and suggest that factors in addition to this structural difference are relevant to this phenomenon. © 1996 Taylor & Francis Ltd.
