Notes:
Novel aromatic diamines have been prepared which contain an ordered sequence distribution of thermally stable, flexible, or rigid units. The synthesis of these materials involves a nucleophilic displacement reaction in aprotic solvent with, for example, the alkali metal salt of p-aminophenol, optionally, the salt of a bisphenol and an activated aromatic halide. Such monomers are useful “building blocks” for various polymeric systems but are of special interest in those which can benefit from the high glass transition temperature imparted by polar or rigid moieties, together with improved impact properties conveyed by either groups. Polyimides and polyamide-imides are examples and display high heat distortion temperatures, good solvent resistance, excellent mechanical properties, high thermal and oxidative stability and depending on diamine structure and molecular weight, thermoplastic characteristics. The synthesis and properties of polyamides, polyimides and polyamide-imides based on 4,4′-[sulfonylbis(p-phenyleneoxy)] dianiline are presented in this paper.
