Abstract
AbstractA series of novel thermotropic liquid crystalline was synthesized from bi(p-hydroxyl benzoic acid)hydroquinone ester (PHQ), triethylene glycol and 2,4- toluenediisocyanate (2,4-TDI) by altering the molar ratio of PHQ and diol, and PHQ was prepared by using hydroquinone and p-hydroxybenzoic acid as raw materials. The thermotropic mesophase behavior, the melting point temperature (Tm) and the isotropization temperature (Ti) of the synthesized polyurethanes were characterized by FT-IR, DSC and POM. It showed that all of the polyurethane polymers exhibited nematic textures at temperature of 110~230 °C. The shift of the melting and isotropization temperature (Tm, Ti) to lower temperature is discussed to be a consequence of the increasing amount of diol content.
