Gn. Matveeva et al., THE STRUCTURE OF AROMATIC THERMOTROPIC CO POLYESTERS WITH SIDE SUBSTITUENTS, Vysokomolekularnye soedinenia. Seria A, 36(6), 1994, pp. 20000999-20001003
X-ray diffraction studies of two fully aromatic copolyesters with asym
metric repeating units: [GRAPHICS] (II) reported. The position of phen
ylene side substitutent in the macromolecule wre found to affect the p
olymer structure. For polymer I, hexagonal packing of parallel macromo
lecular chains characterized by parameter a = 15 angstrom was identifi
ed, whereas for polymer II, tetragonal packing with a = b = 12.8 angst
rom was demonstrated.
