摘要
The liquid crystalline behavior of anisotropic solutions in 100% sulphuric acid of aromatic copolyamide obtained by low-temperature solution copolycondensation of terephthalic acid chloride (TPC), p-phenylene diamine (PPD) and 4, 4'-diamino-diphenylether (DAPE) has been studied by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The effects of inherent viscosity, concentration of copolyamide in sulphuric acid, the content of the third monomer (DAPE) and sequence distribution of copolyamide on the critical concentration, isotropic temperature, phase diagram and texture of liquid crystal were investigated. The schlieren texture was observed and the results of X-ray diffraction indicate that the concentrated solutions of copolyamide exhibit nematic liquid crystalline behavior.
