A wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyester consisting of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, terephthalic acid, and p,p[prime]-biphenol, one from the Xydar series, was aligned by means of magnetic fields and mechanical methods. The tensile properties of these samples were different depending on the orientation degree and the means used for the orientation. Magnetically oriented films exhibited lower elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength than mechanically oriented films of the same orientation degree, but the elastic modulus of magnetically oriented films was comparable to that ...
