摘要
The phase behavior and structure of liquid-crystalline phases of three series of copolymers with mesogenic units belonging to the families of biphenyls and phenyl benzoates have been studied, with the former mesogenic units containing a chiral center in a flexible spacer. A variation in the isotropization temperature as a function of composition is well described by the additivity rule, whereas the tilt angle of mesogenic groups in smectic layers changes nonlinearly. This angle decreases beginning from homopolymers and attains the minimum value for the copolymers of the equimolar composition, which show the highest ferroelectric activity among the polymer systems under study.
