## Abstract Various topological phase diagrams of blends of mainβchain liquid crystalline polymer (MCLCP) and flexible polymer have been established theoretically in the framework of MatsuyamaβKato theory by combining FloryβHuggins (FH) free energy for isotropic mixing, MaierβSaupe (MS) free energy
A dynamic Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is performed to investigate the phase behavior of mixtures of flexible polymers and low molecular weight thermotropic liquid crystals (LCs). The polymer is represented by three-dimensional self-avoiding lattice chains, while the LC is described by the Lebwohl-La
