Method for manufacturing thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymer

摘要

It is an object of the present invention to manufacture high quality thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymer generating no low boiling gas and inducing no discoloration resulted from thermal degradation at high yield. To manufacture a liquid-crystalline polymer having 50 mol % or larger ratio of constitutive unit introduced from 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, the reaction is conducted under the presence of an acylating agent and of a catalyst quantity of aromatic sulfonic acid.
