Forming of a new liquid crystalline through hydrogen bonding

  • Published:
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences

Abstract

A stable Sc phase is formed through hydrogen bonding between side-chain aromatic acid groups of polysiloxane: Bending of polysiloxane with N-Acetyl Latimic acid (NAA) gives a chiral S *c phase; The influence of polymerism and hydrogen bond induction effect over mesophase is discussed. The influence of NAA over mesophase is studied.
