Amorphous-liquid-crystalline side-chain block copolymers

Amorphous—Liquid-Crystalline Side-Chain AB Block Copolymers Synthesis and Morphology... [Pg.174]

The amorphous segment of microphase-separated amorphous/liquid crystalline block copolymers may influence the ordering of the mesogens at the interface, as well as the size and discreteness of that interface. Living copolymerizations are therefore being used to determine the effect of the morphology and domain size on the thermotropic behavior of side-chain liquid crystalline block copolymers. [Pg.183]

Komiya et al. described the living ROMP synthesis of AB-type block copolymers that contain side chain liquid crystalline polymer blocks and amorphous blocks [62]. Norbornene (NBE), 5-cyano-2-norbornene (NBCN) and methyl-tetracyclododecene (MTD) were used for the amorphous polymer blocks, while I-n (n=3,6) were used for the SCLCP block (see Fig. 9). Initiator 1 was used for the ROMP. Block copolymers with monomer ratios from 75/25 to 20/80 (amor-... [Pg.61]
