LCD vs Cleaning solution

Finnnicus - 18-4-2013 at 01:31

There's this youtuber that makes EE and engineering videos and he recently put up one about injecting a cleaning solution (NaOH/NH4OH) into a turned on, broken LCD display. I was wondering about the chemistry behind this, what specific liquid crystal is used (there are many right?)?
Thanks.
