Abstract

The molecular relaxation phenomena of the specific polymer composites obtained by photopolymerisation of the oriented lyotropic liquid-crystalline systems composed of cellulose derivatives dissolved in photo-polymerisable acrylic acid are studied. We have investigated the composites based on two cellulose derivatives, which differ by the length of their side-chains and consequently by their physical properties.In this work, the molecular relaxations of such aniso- tropic composites were studied by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy and by thermooptical analysis. In the dielectric relaxation spectroscopy two representations were analysed: temperature dependences of dielectric loss ϵ“(T) and of electric modulus M“(T). The electric modulus representation is especially convenient to monitor the relaxations in a high temperature range where the ionic conductivity dominates the dielectric response.
