STATISTICAL PHYSICS OF ISOTROPIC-GENESIS NEMATIC ELASTOMERS: I. STRUCTURE AND CORRELATIONS AT HIGH TEMPERATURES
2013
International Journal of Modern Physics B
Isotropic-genesis nematic elastomers (IGNEs) are liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) that have been randomly, permanently cross-linked in the high-temperature state so as to form an equilibrium random solid. Thus, instead of being free to diffuse throughout the entire volume, as they would be in the liquid state, the constituent LCPs in an IGNE are mobile only over a finite length-scale controlled by the density of cross-links. We address the effects that such network-induced localization have
