Y. Haramoto et al., Preliminary communication - Side chain type ionic liquid crystalline polymers having high molecular weight, LIQ CRYST, 27(10), 2000, pp. 1393-1397
Side chain type ionic liquid crystalline polymers having a 4-(1,3-dioxan-2-
yl) pyridinium structure in their mesogenic side chain were synthesized. Th
ese polymers exhibited the smectic A phase. The molecular weights of these
ionic liquid crystalline polymers are very high, e. g. for compound 7-2 M-w
= 486 000.
