Abstract

Liquid crystal-polymer composites have been widely studied in the last ten years, both because of potential applications and to improve our understanding of the behavioural mechanisms involved. Although it cannot be exhaustive, this review describes recent advances in the field of liquid crystal-polymer composites. The preparation techniques as well as the operating principle and various applications of these materials are covered.
