Abstract: The strtictures and phase transitions of thermotropic liquid crystalline aromaticcopolyesters based on p-hydroxy-benzoic acid (PHB),terephthalic acid (TPA) and bisphenol A(BPA) were studied by DSC,WAXD,and hot stage polarized microscopy.The effects of annealing and shearing on the microstructures and seqtience structures of the copolyesters were discussed emphatically,The two glass transition temperatures occurred in sample with 50% PHB bave been discussed.

Key words: thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyester, microstructure, oriented structure, glass transition
