Abstract A series of random polysulfone/polyethersulfone (PSF/PES) copolymers were synthesized by the polycondensation of 4,4′-isopropylidenediphenol, 4,4′-dihydroxyldiphenylsulfone, and 4,4′-dichlorodiphenylsulfone in the presence of potassium carbonate. The resulting copolymers displayed similar solubility with PSF and PES. The glass transition temperature and the 5% weight loss temperature of these copolymers varied in the range of 199°C–299°C and 467°C–498°C, respectively, which showed excellent thermal stability. Moreover, the elongation at break of these copolymers was much higher than that of PES, whereas the tensile strength was a little lower.

A series of random polysulfone/polyethersulfone (PSF/PES) copolymers were synthesized by the polycondensation of 4, 4'-isopropylidendiphenol, 4, 4΄-dihyolroxy diphenyl sulfone and 4, 4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfone in the presence of K2CO3. We obtained a series of copolymers by changing the molar ratio of 4, 4΄-dihyolroxy diphenyl sulfone and 4, 4'-isopropylidendiphenol (it was marked as the ratio of S:A). The copolymers have the similar solubility with polyethersulfone. They also have high glass transition temperatures (Tg: 199°C~229°C) and 5% weight loss temperatures (4, 4'-isopropylidendiphenol: 4, 4΄-dihyolroxy diphenyl sulfone=1:1, Td5=497°C). At the same time the elongation at break is much higher than that of PES, while the tensile strength is a little lower than that of PES.

A series of polyimides (PI) containing bridged linkages were prepared successfully through a three-step technique. The results indicated that the glass transition temperature (Tg) of polyimides was affected by flexibility of polymer chain and the intermolecular interactions. ODPA-TPER-based polyimide possesses the lowest Tg, which was 214°C. All polyimides had semicrystalline characteristics, and ODPA-TPER-based PI exhibited the lowest melting temperature (Tm) at 316°C. The polyimides had high weight loss temperatures, which indicated that bridged linkages can reduce the softening temperature, meanwhile keeping excellent thermal stability.

AbstractA series of new polyamides (PAs) has been prepared from a Troeger base-bridged diamine (TB), 2,8- diamino-4,10-dimethyl-6H,12H-5,11-methanodibenzo[1,5]-diazocine and different commercially available diacid monomers via the conventional polycondensation method. Dense membranes were prepared from the PAs by solution casting and solvent evaporation techniques. The synthesized PAs showed high glass transition temperature (283–290°C), 10% weight loss up to temperature 431°C in air, and tensile strength up to 91 MPa. The PA membranes showed higher permeability than some commercially used glassy polymers (PCO2 up to 109 and PO2 up to 21 Barrer) and permselectivity (PCO2/PCH4 up to 53.7 and PO2/PN2 up to 7.52) in comparison to many other PAs published in the literature.

A series of acrylonitrile (AN)-methacrylate (MA)-dimethyl maleate (DMM) terpolymers with different molar ratios were fabricated by emulsion polymerization. The feeding ratio agrees well with the composition of AN-MA-DMM terpolymer. With increasing the molar ratio of DMM in terpolymer, glass transition temperature (Tg) increases to higher temperature at first and then decreases. Tgdrops to the lowest value-78.6 °C when the feeding ratio is 85/13/2 mol%. The melting temperature (Tm) of 85/11/4 AN-MA-DMM terpolymer is the lowest at-137.2 °C, while its resistant temperature (5 wt% weight loss, T0.05) rises up to the highest value, -314.9 °C. DMM plays an important role in improving the melt flowability of PAN based copolymer. The cross sections of 85/14/1 AN-MA-DMM fiber are compact and the outer surfaces of the fiber are smooth. Tensile strength of AN-MA-DMM fiber is 3.4 cN/dtex.

Optically transparent polyimides with excellent thermal stability and shape memory effect have potential applications in optoelectronic devices and aerospace industries. A series of optically transparent shape memory polyimide hybrid films are synthesized from 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA) and 2,2′-bis-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (TFMB) with various polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) contents and then subjected to thermal imidization. The hybrid films show good optical transparency (>80% at 400 nm and >95% at 500 nm) with cutoff wavelengths ranging from 318 to 336 nm. Following the incorporation of the inorganic POSS structure, the hybrid films exhibit excellent thermal stability with glass transition temperature (Tg) ranging from 351 to 372 °C. The hybrid films possess the highest Tg compared with the previously-reported shape memory polymers. These findings show that POSS is successfully utilized to develop transparent polyimides with excellent thermal stability and shape memory effect.
