Preparation and Electro-Optical Properties of Polyurethane Matrix Based Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal Films
Polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films with polyurethane matrix were prepared by the thermal polymerization-induced phase separation method. The electro-optical properties of the PDLC films prepared under different polymerization temperatures and monomer concentrations were studied. The relationship between the morphology of polymer networks and the electro-optical properties were investigated also. It was found that under the condition that the monomer content was 30%
the polymerization temperature was 343.2 K
the electro-optical properties of the prepared PDLC film were optimum.
