A mixture (1:1) of 1-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol and 2-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol and water were homogeneously mixed in accordance with the same procedure as in Example 13 to obtain a sample of the mixture (1:1) of 1-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol and 2-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol/water system. SAXS analysis of the sample of the mixture (1:1) of 1-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol and 2-O-(5,9,13,17-tetramethyloctadec-4-enyl)erythritol/water system was performed in the same manner as in Example 13. As a result, at least 3 sharp scattering peaks were observed. The peak value ratio exhibited the following ratio peculiar to the reverse hexagonal liquid crystal: 1:√{square root over (3)}:2.
