The relaxation of a magnetically orientated liquid crystalline polymer

The relaxation of the orientation induced by the action of a magnetic field on a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer is examined. The polymer is a main-chain random copolyester available as a molecular weight series covering the range 4600-14 400. The rate of loss of orientation is modelled usin...
