Abstract
The use of liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) in blends with commercial thermoplastics for the modification of rheological and mechanical properties of the latter is a promising way for the development of a new generation of composite polymeric materials. Since we are primarily interested in the rheology, the decisive role of liquid crystal (LC) thermoplastics in blends can be illustrated by the results of papers [1-4], which were selected from numerous other papers as ascertaining that an LCP content of 3-30% brings about a considerable decrease in the blend viscosity, especially in capillary flow.
