Abstract
Precursor polymer MP series were synthesized by 4-allyloxybenzoic acid cholesteryl ester (M) and 4- hydroxyphenyl 4- (propionyloxy) benzoate (P). We obtained novel themotropic side-chain liquid crystal polymer MPZ series by esterification between MP series and 4-((4-ethoxyphenyl) diazenyl) benzoic acid (Z). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to measure the thermal properties of those polymers, and the mesogenic properties were characterized by polarized optical micrograph (POM), DSC and X-Ray. MP series exhibited yellow, green, blue and purple Grandjean textures. MPZ series also showed colorful Grandjean textures. They exhibited thermotropic liquid crystal properties in a broad mesogenic region.
