Abstract
Poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) [poly(DMAEMA)] was grafted onto a commercial polyethylene film by means of gamma-irradiation, and the grafte d films were reacted with various liquid-crystal-forming benzoic acids. Whe n polymeric salts consisting only of poly(DMAEMA) and the benzoic acids wer e heated, dissociation of salts was observed, but with poly(DMAEMA) grafted onto polyethylene films, salt dissociation or crystallization of dissociat ed acids could be avoided, and interesting morphologies, including liquid-c rystal phases, were observed for the systems of benzoic acids-poly(DMAEMA-g -polyethylene).
