Abstract
Thermotropic liquid crystalline random copolyesters (PCBT) were obtained by the direct polycondensation of p-carboxy phenyl terephthalate (CPT) and 1,4-butanediol / ethylene glycol using a catalyst like thionyl chloride in pyridine. Effects of the composition on the thermal property, x-ray diffraction pattern and optical texture are observed. The PCBT showed double melting transition, ie, solid-mesophase transition (Tm) in the range of 200℃ and 300℃, and mesophase-isotropic liquid transition(Ti) in the range of 240℃ and 350℃. Intense maxima of x-ray diffraction pattern of PCBT are at about 16°,19°and 24°of 2θ. The peak at 2θ 19° is attributed to the crystal according to the crystallization of polymer main chain, and the peaks at 2θ 24° are due to the formation of liquid crystal by mesogenic unit. The optical textures of the polymers correspond to the nematic phases.

피리딘 하에서 thionyl chloride를 촉매로 사용하여 p-carboxy phenyl terephthalate(CPT) 와 B.D/E.G의 직접축합중에 의해 랜덤 thermotropic 액정성 copolyesters 를 합성하였으며, 이들 총중합체의 조성이 열적특성, X-선회절 pattern 및 optical texture 에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. PCBT는 이중 용융전이, 즉 200-300℃에서 고체-mesophase전이와 240-350℃에서 mesophase-등방성 액체전이를 나타내었다. PCBT의 X-선 회절 pattern에서 2θ 16, 19, 24°에서 최대치가 나타났으며, 2θ 24°의 피크는 mesogenic 단위에 의해 형성된 액정에 기인하며, 2θ 19의 피크는 중합체 주쇄에 의해 형성된 일반적인 결정에 기인되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 PCBT의 optical texture는 nematic상을 나타내었다.
