We study a binary mixture of long thin rodlike particles using an idealised model in which the rods have restricted orientations and the two types of rod differ only in length. Assuming a hard core potential the virial coefficients up to fourth order are calculated exactly. The free energy is minimized with respect to the orientational distribution functions to give the phase (isotropic or nematic) of the system as the concentration is varied. Conditions for coexistence are then calculated, from which we predict the phase behaviour for mixtures with length ratios of 2.0, 5.0 and 10.0, in both the second and fourth virial approximations.Nous étudions un mélange binaire de molécules en forme de bâtonnets au moyen d'un modèle où les bâtonnets ...
