Abstract

Abstract The isothermal crystallization and melting processes have been investigated in liquid crystal polyesters based on mesogenic bis(4-carboxyphenyl) terephthalate units and flexible alkylene spacers. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for the nucleation and growth of crystals from the smectic phase are presented and discussed with reference to the polymer chain structure.
