摘要:This textbook consists of six chapters. The first chapter highlightsthe concept of liquid crystals, including chemical structure, phaseclassification, defect and texture, and continuum theory. It has beencarefully written to meet the needs of readers who do not specializein liquid crystals. The second chapter is related to the theoreticaldescription of liquid crystalline polymers, networks, and gels, whichdeals with subjects such as the formation of liquid crystallinity inthe polymer system, the phase transition and phase diagram, themolecular weight effect, chain conformation, physics proper.
