The orientation relaxation behavior of a stretched side-chain liquid crystalline polymer (SCLCP) on a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) film under strain was investigated through infrared dichroism at temperatures near its phase transitions. We found a reorientation of the aligned mesogens over the smectic

## Abstract The flow behavior and phase structure of two side‐chain liquid‐crystalline polysiloxanes with the same mesogens but different spacers of either four (PSi4) or six (PSi6) methylene groups are studied in the nematic phase by ^2^H NMR, polarization microscopy, and scattering of light, neut
## Abstract The dielectric properties of a hydrogen‐bonded side‐chain liquid‐crystalline polysiloxane have been examined over wide ranges of frequency and temperature. This polymer has a side‐chain mesogenic moiety consisting of a benzoic acid and a stilbazole. The observed dielectric loss curves c
