A preliminary study on liquid crystalline epoxy curatives from natural abietic acid

Abietic acid was used for preparing two thermotropic liquid crystalline curing agents with different mesogens (LCC1 and LCC2). The chemical structure of the synthesized LCCs was investigated by FTIR and 1HNMR spectroscopic techniques. Their LC phase transition temperatures and texture were identifie...
