    Notes: The phase and orientational behaviors of a series of liquid crystalline (LC) AB-type diblock copolymers comprising thermotropic main-chain (MC) polyester and side-group (SG) polymethacrylate blocks were investigated by X-ray diffraction. The MC and SG blocks were phase separated and gave rise to their individual mesophases that coexisted at equilibrium. The samples were oriented by using either a magnetic field or a mechanical field. In magnetically aligned samples both the MC and SG microphases were oriented with their smectic planes orthogonal to the magnetic field direction, independent of the copolymer composition. Mechanically aligned, fiber samples showed different orientations of the MC and SG smectic planes for different sample compositions. In this case the disposition of the smectic planes of the MC and SG blocks was driven by the relative length of the two blocks. Some features of the X-ray patterns of the copolymers were compared to those of the MC and SG homopolymers. In addition, the MC smectic domains crystallized on annealing without affecting the orientation that had been achieved by applying a magnetic field. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The electrochemical behavior of a thin film of poly-3 coated on a platinum working electrode is described. Poly-3 is a polymethacrylate substituted with an azo anthraquinone unit in the side chain. It can be reduced and oxidized reversibly in a two step redox process using high sweep rates in cyclovoltammetry assuming an EE mechanism. For low sweep rates an EC mechanism is indicated by irreversible reduction. Future work will focus on the synthesis of a copolymer in order to prevent the appearance of the EC mechanism.
