A two-component theoretical model of orientational ordering in wall-adjacent layers of a nonmesogenic liquid (consisting of monomers and dimers) with anisotropic intermolecular interaction has been developed. In the framework of the model, a number of experimental results such as the isotherms of disjoing pressure and some peculiarities in the behavior of heat capacity and dielectric permittivity of the liquid interlayers have been explained.
