Side group liquidβcrystalline polymers (SGβLCP) will need to be macroscopically oriented if the applications foreseen for them are to be realized. The first observation of oscillatoryβsheerβinduced alignment of an SGβLCP melt (the Figure shows a schematic of the rheoβoptical apparatus used) is repor
The effect of mixing speed of a batch mixer on the properties of liquid crystalline polymer/polyethylene terepthalate (LCP/PET) blends is investigated through two techniques: scanning electron micrographs to examine morphological changes, and tensile testing to determine the mechanical property depe
This paper is concerned with properties and processing performance of two thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers (TLCPs) produced by DuPont (HX6000 and HX8000) with widely varying melting points and blends of these two TLCPs. This work was carried out in an effort to develop a TLCP suitable for ge
