## Abstract The conformations of thermotropic polyesters with alternating mesogens and poly(methylene) spacers in the main chain were investigated by conformational calculations using the data of linear‐dichroism IR‐spectroscopy, X‐ray analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. The conformatio

## New thermotropic, liquid crystalline polymers were synthesized, and their thermal properties and the characteristics of their mesophases were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, by use of a hot stage on a polarizing microscope, and by small-angle light scattering. The polymers had an
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
## Abstract We report the synthesis and optical properties of two different polyureas containing azo units in the main chain. The polymers were synthesized from the reaction between a diisocyanate and a diaminoazo compound (4,4′‐diaminoazobenzene) with good yield. These polyureas have glass transit
