To investigate the influence of a systematic variation of the length of main chain and side group spacers on the thermal phase behaviour four homologous series of liquid crystalline side group polyesters with 4-(phenylazo)azobenzene moieties as mesogenic side groups have been prepared and characteri

The phase and orientational behaviors of a series of liquid crystalline (LC) AB-type diblock copolymers comprising thermotropic main-chain (MC) polyester and side-group (SG) polymethacrylate blocks were investigated by X-ray diffraction. The MC and SG blocks were phase separated and gave rise to the
A novel thermotropic side-chain liquid crystalline ionomer (LCI) containing sulfonic acid groups on the side-chain was synthesized by graft copolymerization of mesogenic monomer 4-allyloxy-benzoxy-4 -methoxyphenyl (ABM) and nonemesogenic monomer 4-allyloxy-azobenzene sulfonic acid (AABS) upon polyme
## Abstract In the liquid‐crystalline polymer poly(__p__‐phenylene terephthalate) with dodecyloxy side chains the various possible crystalline structures of the side chain layers determine the mechanical and dielectric behaviour in the solid state. In this investigation the influence of replacement
