Thermotropic Liquid-Crystalline Polymers with Low Thermal Transitions .2. Low-Melting Thermotropic Liquid-Crystalline Homo-Polyesters and Co-Polyesters
Thermotropic liquid crystalline (TLC) polymers with low melt transitions are useful for imaging technologies. This is the first report describing thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyesters of low melt transitions comprised of a mesogen with up to three different spacer moieties. We have noted that the smectic mesophase range decreased with increasing amounts of different spacer moieties, without altering the isotropic transition and thereby leading to a broader nematic range.
