Ss. Skorokhodov et al., SILICON-CONTAINING POLYESTERS ON THE BASI S OF ORGANOSILICON DICARBOXYLIC-ACIDS AND AROMATIC DIOLS, Vysokomolekularnye soedinenia. Seria A, 35(3), 1993, pp. 10000237-10000241
A number of new regular polyesters containing C(ar)-Si-O-Si C(ar) frag
ments, i.e., a combination of flexible and rigid Si-C(ar) joints with
an ester sequence, were synthesized. The ester sequence reproduces the
mesogenic fragment of liquid crystalline (LC) polymers. The synthesiz
ed polyesters do not exhibit LC properties, and their structure is par
tly crystalline and partly amorphous.
