Phase separation on a macroscopic scale is a basic phenomenon which is
thermodynamically well understood. A decrease in the size of the phases to micrometer …

The microstructure at Å-and nm-scale of a thermotropic liquid crystal copolyester amide has
been studied by wide-angle and small-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS and SAXS …

A direct rheo-optical characterization of the flow-induced isotropic− nematic (I− N) transition
in a semiflexible thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymer (TLCP) was investigated, using a …

We report the first direct observations of the physical and chemical microstructure of spider
dragline, revealed by analytical transmission electron microscopy. Individual crystallites …

This paper sets down in detail the observation, first announced as a note (Romo-Uribe, A.;
Windle, AH Macromolecules 1993, 26, 7100), of a strident and reversible orientation …

This paper is centred around the identification of a transient mesophase during the drawing
of PET and PEN and their associated random copolymers. While the observation of the …

The influence of thermal annealing on mechanical relaxations and microstructure of a high
performance thermotropic copolyester was investigated using dynamic mechanical analysis …

The dynamics and shear orientation behavior of a model thermotropic liquid crystalline
polymer (DHMS-7, 9) were characterized by mechanical rheometry and in situ wide angle X …

We report a numerical study of crystallization and melting in bulk statistical homogeneous
(random), homogeneous (slightly alternating), and heterogeneous (produced in a batch …

Two asymmetric diamine monomers, incorporating both aryl ether and non-linear
benzoxazole groups, namely 5-amino-2-(4-(4-aminophenoxy) phenyl) benzoxazole (p …
