Study of phase transitions in liquid crystalline side group polymers via photon transmission method
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase transitions of an acrylate monomer, 3-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4′-oxy)propyl acrylated (LC3), its homopolymer (PLC3) and its graft copolymer (GLC), with polytetrahydrofuran grafts were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Surfaces on the Orientational Properties and Phase Transitions Peculiarities of a Nonpolar Smectogen
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of thin films on the orientational and optical properties of nonpolar monolayer smectogen 4-butoxyphenyl-4′-decyloxybenzoate liquid crystal has been studied by polarizing microscopy and high-resolution photon transmission method.
Journal ArticleDOI
The a-c-a phase diagram of mixed liquid crystals: a photon transmission study
TL;DR: In this article, the phase diagram of the BOPDOB-BOPOOB liquid crystal system was studied and the nematic-smectic A-C transition becomes first order, as the weight percentage of BOPDO in the binary mixture is increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swelling and drying kinetics of polytetrahydrofuran and polytetrahydrofuran–poly (methyl methacrylate) gels: A photon transmission study
TL;DR: In this article, a bifunctional polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF) macromonomer was synthesized by termination of the living polymerization of tetrahydrafuran initiated by triflic anhydride and the subsequent termination by sodium methacrylate.

TL;DR: In this paper, the photon transmission technique was used to study the phase transitions of a liquid crystalline acrylate monomer, 6-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4′oxy)hexyl acrylated (LC6), its homopolymer (PLC6) and its graft copolymer (GLC6).
