Summary on Grant Application Form
Study of: non-discotic columnar phases in polymers, with chemically aperiodic chains, tapered side - groups or o-conjugated backbone; - the new phase transition between two uniaxial nematic phases and of the first reentrant isotropic phase in liquid crystal polymers; - thermotropic phases in crown ether substituted liquid crystal polymers; - unconventional polymer crystals.
