Abstract

We synthesized liquid crystalline polymers containing isosorbide group as a cholesteric derivative and methylene group for controlling the transition temperature to the liquid crystal phase. Effects of the concentration of the isosorbide group and the position of the methylene group on the properties of the liquid crystalline polymer were investigated. Among all the synthesized polymers, polymers (MnHI-x) with a methylene group in the main chain showed higher melting transition temperature and thermal stability than those (SnBI-x) with a methylene group in the side chain. All the synthesized polymers showed an enantiotropic liquid crystal phase. The polymers having 10 mol% isosorbide as a cholesteric liquid crystal phase derivative showed nematic phase, and those having 20 mol% or more isosorbide showed a cholesteric or chiral smectic phase. Thus, we can conclude that the isosorbide group plays a role as a cholesteric liquid crystal phase derivative.

본 연구에서는 콜레스테릭 액정상 유도를 위하여 아이소소바이드기를 가지고 있으며, 액정상 전이온도의 조절을 위하여 메틸렌기를 포함하고 있는 액정고분자들을 합성하였고, 합성된 액정고분자 내의 아이소소바이드기의 함량과 메틸렌기의 위치가 액정고분자의 물성에 미치는 영향이 조사되었다. 합성된 모든 고분자들 중, 주사슬에 메틸렌 유연격자를 가진 고분자(MnHI-x)가 곁사슬에 메틸렌 유연격자를 가진 고분자(SnBI-x)들보다 더 높은 용융전이온도와 열안정성을 나타내었다. 합성된 모든 고분자들은 양방성 액정상을 나타냈으며, 콜레스테릭 액정상 유도체로써 아이소소바이드 함량이 10몰%인 고분자는 네마틱상을, 20몰% 이상의 고분자들은 콜레스테릭 액정상 또는 카이랄 스멕틱상을 형성하였다. 이로써, 아이소소바이드기가 콜레스테릭 액정상 유도체로써의 역할을 하였음을 알 수 있다.
