Physical Properties of Oligophenyls and Polyphenyls

The physical properties of bulk films of oligophenyls and polyphenyls strongly depend on the chemical structure of the molecules and on the structural arrangement of the molecules in the film. The most important parameters of the chemical composition are as follows  

or para substitution of the phenyl ring 

Number of phenyl rings connected with each other 

Substitution of the phenylene backbone with side groups.
