Notes:
A thermotropic liquid crystal polymer with photosensitive groups (liquid crystal photoresist), copoly(4-methoxyphenyl) 4′-(2″-acroloyloxy ethoxy) benzoate (MPAEB)-4-vinylbenzyl cinnamate (VBC) was prepared, and its thermal behavior was characterized by a differential scanning calorimetry. The copolymer exhibited a liquid crystal mesophase between approximately 70°C and 120°C. In the mesophase, poly(MPAEB-VBC) (85/15) had a higher photo-crosslinking ability than that at room temperature and at 140°C, where the copolymer exhibited the isotropic phase. It was found that the liquid crystal photoresist had a high crosslinking ability owing to alignment of its photosensitive groups. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
