## Abstract The use of thermoplastic/liquid‐crystalline polymer (LCP) blends is recognized as a good strategy for reducing viscosity and improving mechanical properties relative to pure thermoplastics. This improvement, however, is only noticeable if the LCP fibrillates, __in situ__, during process
