A "Side-On" Liquid Crystalline Polymer With the Cholesterol Moiety

A "Side-On" Liquid Crystalline Polymer With the Cholesterol Moiety

Starting from cholesterol a new type of liquid crystalline side-chain polymer is synthesized whose cholesterol moiety is attached laterally to the polymer backbone. Phase structure and phase transformation temperatures were determined, proving that the polymer forms a cholesteric phase and, acccordi...

Zusammenfassung:Starting from cholesterol a new type of liquid crystalline side-chain polymer is synthesized whose cholesterol moiety is attached laterally to the polymer backbone. Phase structure and phase transformation temperatures were determined, proving that the polymer forms a cholesteric phase and, acccording to previous results of "side-on" liquid crystalline polymers, no smectic phases exist. 10 ref.--AA
