## 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
## Abstract **Summary:** Anisotropy in molecular motions of a glassy smectic CA (SmCA) liquid crystal of a mainβchain BBβ5(3βMe) polyester was examined by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) for fibrous monodomain samples with two distinct orientations of smectic layers perpendicular and parallel to
