Abstract
An investigation has been made of the structure and properties of cholesteryl esters of poly-N-methacryloyl-ω-aminocarboxylic acids differing in the length, n, of the pendant alkyl substituent (PChMAA- n) and copolymers of ChMAA- n with n-alkylacrylates and n-alkylmethacrylates. The effect of the length of the methylene chain linking the cholesterol groups with the main chain has been considered, as well as the frequency with which the cholesterol groups are positioned in the structure and the properties of the polymers under investigation. It has been shown that, when the number of methylene links in the pendant alkyl radical, n, is greater or equal to 5, the polymers form a liquid crystal (LC) phase in the glassy, highly elestic and viscous low conditions. Schemes for the packing of the macromolecules of the polymers containing cholesterol in the LC condition are put forward.
