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
In this paper, the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model for mixtures containing nematogens has been applied to mixtures of low molecular weight liquid crystals and flexible polymers. Dynamic equations for the time evolution of concentration and orientation fluctuations and the structure factors for
