Alignment layer for LCD

• The polymer of the invention promotes homeotropic alignment of liq. crystal materials. A polymer for use in an alignment layer for a liq. crystal material is provided. The polymer comprises a polymer backbone comprising a plurality of repeating units, said repeating units being divided into at least two groups, wherein each repeating unit in a first group of said repeating units is functionalized with a pendant side chain of a first type S1; each repeating unit in a second group of said repeating units is functionalized with a pendant side chain of a second type S2; said first type of side chain S1 comprising a fluorine-substituted hydrocarbon group; and said second type of side chain S2 comprising a siloxane. The polymer of the invention promotes homeotropic alignment of liq. crystal materials.
