Notes:
The synthesis and characterization of new poly({6-[4-(4-cyanophenylcarbamoyl)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate}-co-{6-[4-(4- cyanophenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate}) are reported. Their liquid-crystalline properties are investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. The glass transition temperatures and the clearing points can be influenced by variation of the copolymer composition. The substances offer a relatively broad temperature range of mesomorphic properties suitable for photochemical studies.
