✦ Synopsis


A series of monocholesterylsuccinate (ChMS) derivatives of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) were prepared with degree of substitution ranging from 0.6 to 2.0. They were characterized by ChMS content, infrared spectroscopy, polarizing microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. All these polymers displayed thermotropic liquid crystalline behavior on heating as well as on cooling. The transformation temperature was found to be influenced by the degree of substitution.

The influence of thermal history on the formation of HECA liquid crystalline phase was studied by DSC. It was found that the degree of ordering in the liquid crystalline phase was heterogeneous, and the multiphase transformation appears when the liquid crystalline phase transformed to the isotropic
