摘要
The microscopic behaviour of blends of poly(ethylene oxide) with two different low molecular weight liquid crystals (LC) was studied in order to evaluate miscibility. One of the liquid crystal components had a phase transition temperature lower than the melting temperature of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), and the other a higher value. The low molecular weight liquid crystal components were 4-cyano-4'-n-heptylbiphenyl (7CB) and p-cyanophenyl p-pentyloxybenzoate (pCP). Thermal analysis and polarized optical and scanning electron microscopy were employed. The melting temperature (T(m)) depression of PEO increased with LC content in the blend, suggesting that the PEO was miscible with both liquid crystals in the isotropic phase. The spherulitic structural morphology of the semicrystalline components is affected by the presence of liquid crystals. (C) 1998 SCI.
