SYNOPSISStudies of the microstructure and orientation in thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer injection moldings have been carried out using a variety of techniques to reveal the complex hierarchical structure. The effect of particle filler on the level of molecular orientation in the flow direction appears relatively weak, but at high filler contents, there is a marked disruption of coarse structure in the matrix. 0 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
