| Abstract | The thermal behaviour of blends of 6-(4-n-butylazobenzene-4′-oxy)hexanoic acid (BABOHA) with three Polymers, polystyrene (PS), poly(2-vinylpyridine)(P2VP) and poly(4-vinylpyridine)(P4VP) has been characterised using differential scanning calorimetry and polarised light microscopy. BABOHA is a monotropic nematogen and its thermal behaviour is determined largely by hydrogen-bonded dimeric species. BABOHA is effectively immiscible with PS and thus, the thermal behaviour of BABOHA in the PS–BABOHA blends was essentially identical to that of pure BABOHA. In contrast, the transition temperatures of BABOHA are dramatically reduced in the blends with both P4VP and P2VP. The nematicisotropic transition temperature is reduced to a greater extent than the crystal–isotropic transition temperature. The driving force for miscibility in these systems is the formation of a hydrogen bond between the acid and pyridine groups. This thermal behaviour cannot be rationalised using the non-covalently attached side-chain liquid-crystal Polymer model suggested by Bazuin and Brandys (Chem. Mater., 1992, 4, 970). Instead we propose that the behaviour of the P2VP–BABOHA and P4VP–BABOHA blends may be understood by considering partial complexation of the Polymer by the acid, with this species acting as an isotropic solute in the liquid-crystal phase thus reducing the melting and clearing temperatures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
