This paper reviews the literature of polymer blends containing low and high molar mass
liquid crystals. Low molar mass liquid crystals have been used as plasticizers for …

The article reviews a brief literature on the rheological properties of polymer melts and
blends. Experimental results on polymer blends are summarized. Technically, vital types of …

Focusses on preliminary studies on developing thermoplastic composite materials suitable
for use in fused deposition modeling (FDM). Looks at thermotropic liquid crystalline …

Presenting practical information on new and conventional polymers and products as
alternative materials and end-use applications, this work details technological …

The equilibrium melting temperatures and the induced γ→ α crystal transformation in blends
of random liquid crystalline copoly (oxybenzoate− ethylene terephthalate) at molar ratio …

Thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) with rigid molecular backbones exhibit
unique physical, mechanical, rheological and thermal properties. The use of LCPs as the …

The concept of generating liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) reinforcing fibrils on an in situ
basis has a number of potentially attractive advantages over the use of the more commonly …

The effect of maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAP) on the mechanical properties of
three polypropylene/liquid-crystalline polymer (PP/LCP) blends was investigated. Three …

The properties of various blends of a polyester‐type thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer
(LCP) with polyethylene terephtalate, polypropylene, and polyphenylene sulfide were …

This paper is concerned with a novel ternary blend composed of poly (ether imide)(PEI),
poly (ether ether ketone)(PEEK) and a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP; HX4000, Du Pont) …
