An optically isotropic liquid crystal (LC) refers to a composite material system whose refractive index is isotropic macroscopically, yet its dielectric constant remains anisotropic microscopically [1]. When such a material is subject to an external electric field, induced birefringence takes place along the electric field direction if the employed LC host has a positive dielectric anisotropy (Ae). This optically isotropic medium is different from a polar Uquid crystal in an isotropic state, such as 5CB (clearing point = 35.4°C) at 50 C. The latter is not switchable because its dielectric anisotropy and optical anisotropy (birefringence) both vanish in the isotropic phase. Blue phase, which exists between cholesteric and isotropic phases, is an example of optically isotropic media.

Figure 4.2 illustrates the fundamental concept of interface and interphase in a fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composite material system, as proposed by Drzal in 1983 [26]. This schematic concept may also be appHed for a biocomposite system. Once a sizing or coating material is applied to the region between the fiber and the matrix, there exists an interphase, which may be referred as a third phase. Two interfaces can exist between the reinforcing fiber and the polymer matrix. One is a fiber-size interface and the other is a polymer-size interface. 

A limited number of stodies have been conducted on the internal repair of steel pipelines using composite material systems. As a consequence, only a few industries have used composite technologies for internal repair. In their report, Bruce et al. (2006) indicated that internal repair would have the best economics for underwater repair locations as it reduces out-of-service time and does not require divers and habitats. Such economics arise because the majority of the gas transmission line companies in the United States consider the ability of the pipeline to remain in service during internal repair to be very important. Moreover, they would considCT internal repair, even if the pipeline needs to be out of service (no flow), only if the pipeline remains pressurised and the line can still be inspected by a pipe inspection gauge after repair. However, these companies have indicated that they would consider performing a repair from inside the pipe once a proven and accepted internal repair system becomes available. Thus, the selection of the most appropriate technique of renovation, particularly on the internal repair of high-pressure and deep water pipeline applications, is a critical and ongoing issue.
