Thermotropic Liquid-Crystal Polymers with Mesogenic Groups in the Main Chain

  • Chapter
Liquid-Crystal Polymers

Part of the book series: Specialty Polymers ((SPEPO))

Abstract

The appearance of liquid-crystal polymers with mesogenic groups in the main chain is usually correlated with the study by De Gennes [1], which hypothesized the potential capacity to form a liquid-crystalline phase for such chains based on qualitative considerations. Such polymers were independently synthesized and characterized as LC by Roviello and Sirigu [2]. They departed from almost the same qualitative considerations, and assigned the function of this compound of rigid mesogenic fragments to flexible fragments so that they did not prevent the mutual alignment of the rigid fragments.
