Abstract: | The thermotropic mesomorphism of poly(propyleneimine) dendrimers of first, second, and third generations has been studied by the methods of polarization thermomicroscopy and DSC. Phase diagrams for the binary systems of dendrimers with n-amyloxy-n′-cyanobiphenyl calamite liquid crystal and hexa(pentyloxy)triphenylene discotic liquid crystal have been constructed. Measurements have been carried out over the entire concentration range at temperatures corresponding to the stable states of nematic, columnar, and isotropic phases. The effects of the chemical nature and shape of linear and cyclic mesogen molecules on the manifestation of mesomorphism in LC dendrimers are considered. |
