METHOD OF PRODUCING NANOCOMPOSITE BASED ON LIQUID CRYSTAL POLYMER MATRIX AND INORGANIC SEMICONDUCTOR Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC C08L33/08 C08K3/30 C09K19/38 B82B3/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to polymer composite materials, particularly a method of producing a nanocomposite based on a liquid crystal polymer and an inorganic semiconductor which can be widely used in laboratory experiments and in industry. The invention discloses a method of producing a nanocomposite which involves mechanical treatment of a solution of a liquid crystal polymer of the type poly-4-(n-acryloyloxyalkoxy)benzoic acid of formula: , where n=3-12, until interchain bonds of the polymer break.The solution is mixed with nanoparticles of the inorganic semiconductor coated with a low-molecular weight organic ligand which contains the same functional group as the polymer and is selected from a group of fatty acids. The obtained mixture is held, chemically bonded nanoparticles are formed and separated and the solvent is distilled off. The inorganic semiconductor used is cadmium selenide, cadmium sulphide or lead sulphide. The fatty acid used is oleic or palmic or linoleic acid.

EFFECT: disclosed method enables to obtain nanocomposites based on liquid crystal polymers which contain nanoparticles of inorganic semiconductors which are included in the volume of the composite in an ordered manner.
