Their chemical structures were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, and elemental analysis, Their phase behaviors were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscope, and X ray diffraction techniques. The results show that all these polysiloxanes except PⅤ display smectic or nematic mesonorphism or both. The dependence of phase transition temperature on the rigidity of mesogenic unit. the length of spacer group, and the flexibility of Si(CH 3) 2O chain is also described.展开更多

The monomeric dye was copolymerized with the mesogenicmonomer using a free radical initiator to produce polymers useful for nonlinear optics. Themonomers and polymers were characterized by IR,;H-NMR, and UV-Vis spectra. Theaverage molecular weight (M;and M;) of the polymers were determined by gel permeationchromatography. The thermal properties of the polymers such as thermal stability andphase transition behavior were studied by thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermalanalysis, polarizing optical microscope and X-ray diffractometer. The results demonstratethat the synthesized polymers are crystalline polymers at room temperature and no liquidcrystalline phases were observed for all of them.展开更多

The thermal properties of the polymers such as thermal stability and phase transition behavior were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermal analysis and polarizing optical microscopy techniques. The experimental results show that all the synthesized polymers do not exhibit liquid crystallinity except the homopolymer of the mesogenic monomer MAPB2 and the glass transition temperatures of the polymers increase with increasing content of azo moiety in polymers linearly.展开更多
