Abstract

Small-Angle Neutron Scattering is the unique method which allows the determination of the polymer conformation in the bulk. This method has been applied to several kinds of liquid crystalline polymers. We report here general results obtained on side-chain liquid-crystal polymer, main-chain liquid-crystal polymer and finally combined liquid-crystal polymers. It is shown that the polymer conformation is largely dependent on the insertion site of the liquid crystal molecule and on the structure of the mesophase.
