Anchoring properties of photoaligned azo-dye materials.
The photoinduced alignment of a liquid crystal (LC) on films of azo dyes was studied for the liquid crystal display applications. In order to improve the alignment stability of the photoaligned dye (SD-1), the azo-dye derivative with polymerizable terminal groups was synthesized (SDA-1). The films of SDA-1 exhibit good photoalignment properties and ultraviolet stability after thermal polymeriza...
متن کاملManipulation of anchoring strength in an azo-dye side chain polymer by photoisomerization.
The generation of surface anisotropy by photochemical means has been proposed as an attractive method to align liquid crystals. In this paper, we present an experimental study of the alignment induced on a liquid crystal by a polymer film containing azo-dye groups in the side chain. Optical measurements were performed in nematic liquid crystal cells to determine the azimuthal and zenithal ancho...
متن کاملBiodegradation of azo dye compounds
Azo dyes are one of the oldest industrially synthesized organic compounds characterized by presence of Azo bond (-N=N-) and are widely utilized as coloring agents in textile, leather, cosmetic, paint, plastic, paper, and food industries During textile processing, inefficiencies in dyeing result in large amounts of the dyestuff (varying from 2% loss when using basic dyes to a 50% loss when certa...
متن کاملPhotoaligned Vertical Aligned Nematic Mode in Liquid Crystals
The photoaligned vertical aligned nematic (VAN) mode in liquid crystals (LC) was developed using the photosensitive polyimide (PI) JALC 2021-R2, illuminated by obliquely incident nonpolarized light. It has been found that the combination of PI with water soluble sulfonic azo-dye (SD) yields a perfect electro-optical performance of a liquid crystal in the VAN mode. The polar and the azimuthal an...
متن کاملNitrogen mustard inhibition of azo dye carcinogenesis.
Cellular growth and development may be al tered appreciably by administration of the nitro gen mustards. The chemotherapeutic value of these compounds in the treatment of leukemia and other neoplasms has been well established (5). In addition, the studies reported by Auerbach, Ta turn, Karnofsky, and others have indicated that these agents are mutagenic for Drosophila (1, @), Neurospora (@1), b...
