β¦ Synopsis
Columnar discotic materials are considered for applications in the area of photoconductivity and light-emitting diodes. A major requirement is their stability at elevated temperatures and in the presence of oxygen. The thermal and thermo-oxidative behaviour of discotic triphenylene derivatives was investigated by us using various methods, in particular by chemiluminescence (CL), UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and in situ thermogravimetry-mass spectroscopy (TG-MS). Various degradation processes are described for increasing temperature, and their influences on functional properties are discussed.

The influence of thermal history on the formation of HECA liquid crystalline phase was studied by DSC. It was found that the degree of ordering in the liquid crystalline phase was heterogeneous, and the multiphase transformation appears when the liquid crystalline phase transformed to the isotropic
## Abstract The effect of selected organic compounds on the variation of thermal stability of PVC during the polymerization has been studied. MΜ~__w__~, molecular weight distribution, and syndiotactic dyads content were determined in the polymers obtained. The variation of thermal stability is corr
