Synthesis of a photoresponsive liquid-crystalline polymer containing azobenzene.
The synthesis of an oriented liquid-crystalline photoresponsive polymer, prepared by polymerization of mono- and di-acrylates, both of which contain azobenzene chromophores, is reported. The prepared free-standing polymer film shows strong reversible photoinduced deformation upon exposure to unpolarized UV light at 366 nm, as a result of an optically induced isomeric change of the azobenzene mo...
متن کاملn liquid crystalline elastomer materials
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) exhibit a number of remarkable physical effects, including the unique, high-stroke reversible mechanical actuation when triggered by external stimuli. This article reviews some recent exciting developments in the field of LCE materials with an emphasis on their utilization in actuator applications. Such applications include artificial muscles, industrial man...
متن کاملSpinodal decomposition in liquid crystalline materials
The theory of phase separation m a liquid crystal by spinodal decompoSit1on is developed The time evolution of two coupled parameters, the volume concentration (or mole fraction), and the orientational order parameter is calculated The conditions for penodic fluctuations are gJven and the structure factor for spinodal decomposition is studied
متن کاملReversible switching of the shear modulus of photoresponsive liquid-crystalline polymers.
Manipulation makes light work: The morphology and rheological properties of a liquid-crystalline system can be dynamically manipulated with UV light by attaching photoresponsive liquid-crystalline moieties to a siloxane-based polymer. Stimulation with UV light induces a conformational change in the molecule, which disrupts the liquid-crystalline mesophase (see picture), and results in a dramati...
متن کاملNew cyanopyridone based luminescent liquid crystalline materials: synthesis and characterization.
A new series of 4-(3,4-bis(akyloxy)phenyl)-6-(4-((1-(4-cyano- or 4-nitro-benzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)phenyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitriles carrying terminal di-alkoxy chain lengths (viz. octyloxy, decyloxy, dodecyloxy, tetradecyloxy and hexadodecyloxy) as well as terminal polar groups -CN or -NO2 have been designed and synthesized successfully as luminescent mesogens. Thei...
