Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a backbone liquid crystal elastomer. A prepolymer is made from the silicon hydrogen addition reaction with the materials of diene monomer containing mesogenic units, polysiloxane containing hydrogen and silane coupling agent under the function of catalyst, then the prepolymer is fabricated into a low crosslinked density network structure containing mesogenic units connects through the hydrolysis of siloxane, finally the liquid crystal elastomer is acquired through suitable stretching. The method is characterized by simple operation, being difficult to be gel, and easy control for elastomer crosslinked density, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation technology of the main chain type liquid crystal elastomer, specifically refers to the preparation method of the main chain type liquid crystal elastomer. Background technique [0002] In today's world, the ever-changing material science is developing towards multifunctionality and high orientation. A typical representative of this supramolecular system is liquid crystal elastomer (LCE). LCE is developed on the basis of liquid crystal polymers, which have low crosslink density and have dual properties of elastomers and liquid crystals. Because of its special properties such as orientation, ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity and optical nonlinearity under the action of mechanical force field, it can not only be used to prepare piezoelectric sensors, but also can be used in non-porous filter membranes and nonlinear optical materials Therefore, the research on the molecular design, structure and structure and prop...
