Recent liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) research has sought to define structure-property relationships of these complex new materials. The two major types of LCPs, thermotropic and lyotropic LCPs, both exhibit effects of process history on the microstructure frozen into the solid state. The high mechanical anisotropy of the molecules favors formation of complex structures. Microscopy has been used to develop an understanding of these microstructures and to describe them in a fundamental structural model. Preparation methods used include microtomy, etching, fracture and sonication for study by optical and electron microscopy techniques, which have been described for polymers. The model accounts for the macrostructures and microstructures observed in highly oriented fibers and films.Rod-like liquid crystalline polymers produce oriented materials because they have extended chain structures in the solid state. These polymers have found application as high modulus fibers and films with unique properties due to the formation of ordered solutions (lyotropic) or melts (thermotropic) which transform easily into highly oriented, extended chain structures in the solid state.

A series of dodecyl 1-thio-β-D-glycosides has been synthesized and characterized (DSC, NMR, CP MAS, X-ray diffraction) as possible new marking materials with liquid-crystalline properties. These compounds undergo solid to liquid crystal phase transitions at various temperatures, which depend on the nature of the carbohydrate part of the structure. Their liquid-crystalline phases show extreme shear thinning behaviour.Key words: liquid crystal, powder X-ray diffraction, phase transition, thioglycoside, solid-state NMR, marking material

AbstractApplying a nematic liquid crystalline phase of a synthetic Na-hectorite with layer separations >100 nm, the reaction time for pillaring with Al13 Keggin oligocation could be reduced to seconds ensuring that cation exchange is controlled by thermodynamics. With this material at hand we are able to resolve the long-standing dispute regarding the charge of intercalated Keggin oligocations. Micropore sizes as determined by physisorption isotherms, adsorption isotherms obtained via elemental analysis, and results of 27Al solid-state NMR and pyridine probe IR spectroscopy favor a charge of +7 for the Al13 pillars intercalated into hectorite unaltered.

Light-emitting liquid-crystalline polymers showing PL in the pristine solid state can control their PL color from blue to light-blue via a thermal phase transition to LC phases, which originates from a dynamic change of aggregated structures.
