In recent years, heat dissipation in highly advanced electronics has been a setback that required the imminent development of thermally conductive polymers. Therefore, researchers have made a lot of effort to develop thermally conductive polymers, it is known for harnessing the self-assembling characteristics of LC moieties as a very effective strategy to improve the thermal conductivities of organic materials. From this perspective, our group is studying thermal conducting polymers based on liquid crystalline epoxy resins (LCERs) and liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs). Particularly, our group mainly has developed polymerizable LCs with epoxide moieties. Multifunctional epoxides can be used as thermosetting polymers, and monofunctional epoxides can be utilized as thermoplastic polymers after polymerization. Several LCERs and LCPs with different molecular designs have been developed from various LC molecules, and their properties will be discussed in detail. |
