LI Zi-fa, ZHOU Qi-feng, ZHANG Zi-yong, GAO Ge. STUDY OF LIQUID CRYSTAL POLYMERS WITH MESOGENS LATERALLY FIXED INTO THE MAIN CHAIN[J]. Acta Polymerica Sinica, 1991,(1):91-97.DOI:
A series of liquid crystal polymers with mesogens laterally fixed into the main chain was synthesied by solution polycondensations at low temperature using monomers 2
5-dihydroxyl-1
4-phenylene di-p-alkoxybenzoate and 1
12-dodecandioic acid dichloride. It was found that all polymers including the one with methoxy substituents are thermotropic as determined by DSC and polarizing microscopy.
