Most of the polymers with mesogenic groups in side‐ or main‐chains are liquid‐crystalline in nature. One can observe a lot of similarities in the mesophase structure types, orientational order parameter, anisotropy of optical, electrical and magnetical properties of polymer and low‐molecular‐weight liquid crystals. At the same time the presence of backbones contributes some peculiarities and limitations to their behavior.
