A novel series of main chain liquid crystalline copolyesters with X-shaped two-dimensional mesogenic units and crown ether cycles of trans-4,4'-bis(4-hydroxyphenylazo)dibenzo-14-crown-4 were synthesized and their mesomorphic properties were studied through GPC, [η], DSC, TG, WAXD and POM. It was found that all the copolyesters showed the thread texture or schlieren texture. Their melting temperature (Tm) and isotropization temperature (Ti) were changed regularly with varying the trans-4,4'-bis- (4-hydroxyphenylazo)dibenzo-14-crown-4 unit content in the co-polyesters.

Key words: X-shaped two-dimensional unit, dibenzo-14-crown-4, liquid crystalline copolyester
