Description
Summary:•Phosphazenes are very important and robust inorganic molecules.•There are a few articles about phosphazene liquid crystals.•There is no other study in which all studies on the liquid crystal properties of phosphazenes were compiled.•We think that this review article is important to draw attention to the liquid crystal properties of these molecules. In this review we highlight the publications about liquid crystal phosphazene derivatives. While some of the reports investigate of the liquid crystallinity of cyclic phosphazene derivatives, some of them are about phosphazene-based polymeric liquid crystal materials. Literature about liquid crystal phosphazenes were reviewed and their mesomorphic behavior were summarized.
