In previous examples of substituted polysiloxanes, the relaxation of the side chains with the rigid backbone was assumed to describe the polymer chain in the amorphous glassy state. This assumption, relaxation of side chains only, can be used to study the crystalline states of PDES. Certainly, this simplification is extreme, but it can be usefiil to understand the available orientation of the pendant groups when the polymer chains undergo transition from one crystalline form to another. The present approach does not address the chain reorientation or the interchain interactions in the crystalline state.

A typical example of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers is the polyesters and the mesogen substituted polysiloxane. The aromatic amide, the super strength fiber known commercially as Kevlar belongs to the lyotropic liquid crystalline polymers. The other important lyotropic liquid crystalline polymers are poly(7-benzyl-L-glutamate), abbreviated as PBLG, cellulose derivatives, the tobacco mosaic virus, etc.

The selective stationary phases were further divided in the scheme proposed by Horning et al. [79] for the steroid separations into the types selective to alcohols, ketones, multiple bonds, etc. Here, various selective interactions between the column and the separated solutes are utilized. Most importantly, various polyglycols, polyesters, polyphenyl ethers, polyamides and polyimides belong to these categories. In addition, substitution of an alkyl group in a polysiloxane polymer by a more polar... 

The key feature of all acoustic wave sensors for detecting vapors is that measurable characteristics of the acoustic wave is altered as a result of adsorption on the surface of a receptive layer or absorption into the bulk of a thin layer (Figure 3). After sorption of the vapor by a thin film on top of the acoustic resonator equilibrium conditions are established and as a consequence of the increased mass or more accurately the change in the phase velocity of the acoustic wave a signal is created. Surface coatings generally enhance the sorption of vapors with the key properties of selectivity and sensitivity while affording reversibility. Typically, rubbery polymers were used on SAW devices such as polyisobutylene or substituted polysiloxanes but also self-assembled... 

On the other hand, formation of photorefi active silicone composite with good performance was reported A carbazole-substituted polysiloxane that was sensitized by 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenone was used as a photoconducting medium and l-[4-(2-nilrovinyl)phenylpiperidine was added as an optically nonlinear chromophore. The photorefractive property of polymer was determined by diffraction efficiency using a 100 pm-thick film. The maximum diffraction efficiency (rj max) of 71% was obtained at the electric field of 70 V/pm. 

Finally, melting point depression measurements have been conducted on several symmetrically substituted polysiloxanes, specifically the dimethyl, diethyl, di-n-propyl, and diphenyl polymers. Interpretation of such experimental results yields entropies of fusion. Although it is difib-cult to extract a reliable configurational entropy from this quantity, such results could help elucidate the configurational characteristics of the chains thus investigated. ... 

Radical addition of thiol or thiol-modified support to the vinyl group gives the respective thioether linkage 34 and represents one of the most convenient ways to immobilize Cinchona alkaloids [163, 172]. There are also few examples of platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation of Cinchona alkaloids toward 11-silyl-substituted derivatives 35 with the use of monomeric silanes or polysiloxane polymers [173-175]. De Vries reported rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation of the four main members of Cinchona alkaloids carried out on a hundred gram scale. Under optimized condition, linear aldehydes 36 were selectively obtained with the yield over 80% [176]. 

Replacement of the methyl groups with another functionality enables polarity to be imparted to the polymer. The structure of substituted polysiloxanes in Tables 3.8 and 3.20 and Figure 3.6 can be depicted by the following general representation...
