摘要:
Morphological, electro-optical and switching properties of polyester resin/nematic liquid crystal composite films have been studied for varying composition (10-40 wt% of LC), temperature (20-50 C), film thickness (10-75 mum) and UV curing time of the matrix (0.25-12 min). The PDLC films were formed by LC separation in a UV polymerization process of the thin layer of oligoester resin (liquid crystal mixture) between ITO coated glass plates. The electro-optical and response behaviour based on the electric field controlled light scattering of the composite films was observed. The results were interpreted in terms of effective anchoring strength at the interface of the polymer and liquid crystal depending either on the area fraction of the interface in the composite film (dependent on the size and shape of the liquid crystal droplets) or the stiffness and resistivity of the polyester resin changing in the course of the crosslinking polymerization.
