Abstract
A influencia da estrutura quimica dos grupos mesogenicos e do tamanho dos grupos espacadores, no comportamento de fase de uma serie de cristais liquidos polimericos de cadeia lateral (SCLCP), foram estudados utilizando-se espalhamento de raios-X a Baixo Ângulo (SAXS) e Microscopia Otica de Luz Polarizada (POM). Analises do arranjo das mesofases em amostras nao orientadas e orientadas por acao do campo magnetico sao descritas. O papel do tamanho do espacador lateral no empacotamento local e na largura da camada esmetica determinados nas mesofases SmA e SmC e elucidado. Os ângulos θ formados entre os grupos mesogenicos e a normal as camadas nas mesofases SmC foram determinados. Um estudo a respeito do grau de ordem em funcao da temperatura, para os polimeros esmeticos foi possivel atraves de medidas de SAXS. Uma ordenacao particular em um dos SCLCPs estudados e relacionada com a coexistencia de duas fases distintas. The influence of the chemical structure of the mesogenic groups and the length of the spacer groups on the phase behavior in a series of side-chain liquid crystalline polyacrylates (SCLCP) have been studied using Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) and Polarized Optical Microscopy (POM). Analyses of the mesophase arrangement in unaligned and aligned samples by magnetic field are reported. The role of the spacer length on the local packing and on the thickness of the layers encountered in the SmA and SmC mesophases is elucidated. The tilt angles θ of the mesogenic cores related to the normal of the layers in the SmC mesophases are measured. A study about the degree of order as a function of temperature for the smectic polymers was possible using SAXS measurements. A particular arrangement in one of the studied SCLCPs is related to the coexistence of two different phases.
