Abstract

Liquid crystaline polymers (LCPs) involving a polysiloxane backbone and a novel vinylacetic acid unit in the spacer have been synthesised, These polymers all show dramatically lower clearing points (T_cl) than polymers with similar chain lengths but involving established polymethylene spacer groups.
