The synthesis and properties of liquid crystal elastomers

Abstract

Liquid crystal elastomers have been synthesised in which up to 10 mol% of cross-link units may be introduced without completely disrupting the nematic liquid crystal phase, although the introduction of cross-linking has a marked effect upon the temperatures of the phase transitions.
