liquid crystal polymers

Liquid crystalline polyesters are among the first industrially used liquid crystal polymers.

Mixing it with Fastflight avoids many of the durability problems associated with liquid crystal polymers.

Fastflight has largely displaced liquid crystal polymers like Kevlar for bowstrings as it is more durable and fails more gradually.

Such a vector vortex coronagraph made out of liquid crystal polymers is currently in use at the 200-inch Hale telescope at the Palomar Observatory.
