Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of liquid crystal polymer materials, and particularly relates to a side chained linear azobenzene liquid crystal polymer material and a preparation method thereof. In the method, a novel liquid crystal polymer material using butadiene-ethylene-functional group substituted ethylene ternary alternative polymer as a main chain and the azobenzene derivative as a side chain structure is synthesized by using an open loop translocation polymerization method through using a 5-substituted cyclooctene (a substituent group is an azobenzene derivative) monomer in the presence of a Grubbs catalyst. According to the invention, the problem that the conventional azobenzene liquid crystal elastomer material is insoluble and is not molted so as not to be prepared by adopting a common machine shaping method. Under the condition of no cross-linked network structure, the side chained linear azobenzene liquid crystal polymer material has the rubber elasticity and good optical response characteristic; and the side chained linear azobenzene liquid crystal polymer material can machined to form liquid crystal polymer materials, such as films and fibers, after molten or dissolved without being limited in machining size and appearance and can be recycled for re-machine shaping after machine-shaping, and is a novel low-carbon and environment-friendly optical response liquid crystal polymer material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of liquid crystal polymer materials, and in particular relates to a side chain type linear azobenzene liquid crystal polymer material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the development of photoresponsive shape memory polymers (Shape Memory Polymers, SMPs) using photosensitive polymers has become a new research hotspot in polymer smart materials, because photoresponsive SMPs do not require direct contact with chemical substances or Material exchange occurs, as long as non-contact energy is supplied externally, its shape can be controlled, and optical drive has the advantages of large energy transfer, fast, accurate, easy to control, and clean. Therefore, photoresponsive SMP is considered to be a potential executive material for Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS). The most outstanding representative in the innovation of light-responsive SMP materials is polyme...
