Preliminary communication - The synthesis and thermotropic liquid crystalline behaviour of novel main chain poly(aryl ether ketone)s containing a lateral phenyl group

Novel main chain poly(aryl ether ketone)s containing a lateral phenyl group were synthesized by nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4,4-biphenol and phenylhydroquinone with either 4,4-difluorobenzophenone or 1,4-bis(4-fluorobenzoyl)benzene and their thermotropic liquid crystalline properties were characterized by a variety of experimental techniques. Thermotropic liquid crystalline behaviour was observed in the copolymers containing 50 and 70 mol% biphenol. Melting (Tm) and isotropization (Ti) transitions both appeared on the DSC thermograms. A banded texture was formed after shearing the sample in the liquid crystalline nematic state. As expected, each of the copolymers had a relatively lower melting transition than the biphenol-based homopoly(aryl ether ketone)s because of the copolymerization effect of the crystal-disrupting monomer phenylhydroquinone.     

Effect of crystal-disrupting chlorohydroquinone on the first-order transitions of poly(aryl ether ketone)s containing biphenyl units

The novel poly(aryl ether ketone)s were synthesized by nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4,4′-difluorobenzophenone with 4,4′-biphenyldiol and chlorohydroquinone. As expected, the copolymers have lower melting transitions than the biphenyldiol-based homopoly(aryl ether ketone) because of the copolymerization effect of the crystal-disrupting monomer chlorohydroquinone. Copolymers containing 50 and 70% biphenyldiol show two first-order transitions which are associated with the crystal-to-liquid crystal transition and the liquid crystal-to-isotropic transition.

Fully aromatic poly(ether ketone)s bearing macrocycle pendants: Synthesis and crosslinking

This study reports a method to prepare fully aromatic poly(ether ketone) thermosets. The cyclization of 2′,5′‐dimethoxy[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐2,5‐diol and a difluoro monomer was carried out under pseudo high dilution condition. Two types of fully aromatic poly(ether ketone)s with macrocycle were successfully prepared by copolymerization of macrocycle of aryl ether ketone containing hydroxyphenyl groups, 4,4′‐(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphenol (HFBPA), and 4,4‐difluorobenzophenone. The obtained copolymers have high molecular mass, good solubility, and high glass transition temperatures in the presence of CsF, the crosslinking reaction of copolymers occurred and afforded fully aromatic thermoset poly(aryl ether ketone)s by ring‐opening reaction driven by entropy. After crosslinking, these copolymers show much higher glass transition temperatures, excellent thermal stability, and better mechanical strength. © Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Imide-aryl ether ketone block copolymers

Imide-aryl ether ketone block copolymers were prepared and their morphology and thermal and mechanical properties investigated. Two aryl ether ketone blocks were incorporated; the first was an amorphous block derived from bisphenol–A and the second block was a semi-crystalline poly(aryl ether ether ketone) prepared from a soluble and amorphous ketimine precursor. Bis(amino) aryl ether ketone and aryl ether ketimine oligomers were prepared via a nucleophilic aromaic substitution reaction with molecular weights ranging from 6,000 to 12,000 g/mol. The oligomers were co-reacted with 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) and pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) diethyl ester diacyl chloride in N-methyl–2-pyrrolidone (NMP) in the presence of N-methylmorpholine. The copolymer compositions, determined by H-NMR, of the resulting amic ester based copolymers ranged from 8 to 50 wt % aryl ether ketone or ketimine content. Prior to imide formation, the ketimine moiety of the aryl ether ketimine block was hydrolyzed (p-toluene sulfonic acid) to the ketone form producing the aryl ether ether ketone block. Compositions of this block were maintained low to retain solubility. Solutions of the copolymers were cast and cured to effect imidization, producing clear films with high moduli (ca. 2200 MPa) and elongations (33–100%). The copolymers displayed good thermal stability with decomposition temperatures in excess of 450°C. Multiphase morphologies were observed irrespective of the co-block type, block length or composition. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Synthesis and Properties of Poly(Aryl Ether Ketone) Copolymers with Trifluoromethyl‐Substituted Benzene in the Side Chain

The new monomer (4‐(4′‐trifluoromethyl)phenoxyphenyl)hydroquinone (TFPOPH) was synthesized in a three‐step synthesis. A series of poly(aryl ether ketone) copolymers were prepared by the reaction of (4‐(4′‐Trifluoromethyl)phenoxyphenyl)hydroquinone and hydroquinone (HQ) with 4,4′‐difluorobenzophenone (DFB) in the presence of potassium carbonate in tretramethylene sulfone (TMS). Thermal analyses of the fluorinated copolymers showed that the glass transition temperature and 5.0% weight loss temperature are similar with that of PEEK, and the crystallinity decreased with increasing of TFPOPH. For the copolymer synthesized with the molar fraction of TFPOPH in the diphenol monomers (TFPOPH, HQ) being over 0.2, no cold crystallization temperature and melting temperature were detected, indicating that these copolymers are almost amorphous. The crystal structure of the copolymers with the molar fraction of TFPOPH being not higher than 0.2 is rhombic. The solubility in polar aprotic solvents of poly(aryl ether ketone)s copolymers increases and dielectric constant decreases step by step.

Fully aromatic macrocycle‐terminated polyimide: synthesis and cross‐linking

This study reported a method to prepare fully aromatic macrocycle‐terminated polyimides (MC‐PI). The macrocycle of aryl ether ketones was prepared from (4‐amino)phenylhydroquinone and a di‐fluoro monomer under pseudo high dilution condition. Novel aromatic fully MC‐PI oligomers were successfully prepared by the reaction of 2,3,3′,4′‐biphenyltetracarboxylic diandhydride with 2,5‐bis(4′‐aminophenoxy)‐biphenyl and sulfur‐containing macrocycle of aryl ether ketone. The MC‐PI oligomers were cross‐linkable in the heating, and the glass transition temperatures of the polyimides increased after thermally cured. The cross‐linking reaction of MC‐PI could form fully aromatic thermosetting polyimide by ring‐opening reaction. After cross‐linking, these polyimides showed higher glass transition temperatures and excellent thermal stability. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Formation of a metastable phase induced by a liquid crystalline phase in a novel chloropoly(aryl ether ketone)

The phase transition behavior of a thermotropic liquid crystalline poly(aryl ether ketone) synthesized by nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4,4′‐biphenol (BP), and chlorohydroquinone (CH) with 1,4‐bis(4‐fluorobenzoyl)benzene (BF) has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD). The copolymer exhibits multiple first order phase transitions, which are associated with crystal‐to‐smectic liquid crystal transition and smectic liquid crystal‐to‐isotropic transition. When the cooling rate is low (< 10°C/min), only stable crystal form I is formed. With the cooling rate being high (>20°C/min), the metastable crystal form II is formed, which always coexists with form I. The liquid crystalline phase plays an important role in the formation of metastable phase form II.     

Studies on the synthesis and properties of thermotropic liquid crystalline polycarbonates. VII. Liquid crystalline polycarbonates and poly(ester‐carbonate)s derived from various mesogenic groups

Three series of thermotropic liquid crystalline polycarbonates and poly(ester‐carbonate)s were prepared by solution polycondensation of 4,4′‐biphenyldiol (BP), 4′‐hydroxybiphenyl‐4‐hydroxybenzoate (HHB), or 4‐hydroxyphenyl‐4″‐hydroxybiphenyl‐4′‐carboxylate (HHBP), as mesogenic unit, with 1,10‐bis(p‐hydroxybiphenoxy)decane (N10), bisphenol A (BPA), 4,4′‐dihydroxy‐diphenyl ether (BPO), 4,4′‐[phenylbis(oxy)]bisphenol (BPOO), methylhydroquinone (MeHQ), or phenylhydroquinone (PhHQ). One series of cholesteric poly(ester‐carbonate)s were also prepared by using HHBP, the aromatic diols mentioned above and isosorbide as the chiral moiety. All polycondensations were implemented in pyridine by using triphosgene as the condensation agent. The synthesized polycarbonates were characterized by viscometer, FTIR, DSC, TGA measurements, polarizing microscopy equipped with a heating stage, and WAXD powder pattern. In this study, it was found that the liquid crystalline properties of polycarbonates strongly rely on the mesogenic unit applied. HHBP‐series exhibits a wide temperature region of liquid crystalline (LC) phase even with 50% of bisphenol A (BPA), which is a V‐shaped structure and usually destroys liquid crystalline properties. In addition, homopolycarbonate with HHBP structure possesses extraordinarily low phase‐transition temperature and wide liquid crystalline phase range, due to its asymmetric structure. This asymmetric structure results in head‐to‐tail, head‐to‐head, and tail‐to‐tail random conformation of polymer chain. The isosorbide containing poly(ester‐carbonate)s formed cholesteric phase, which showed homogeneous blue, green, or red Grandjean texture upon shearing in molten state and the Grandjean texture could be frozen easily while quenching the sample to the room temperature. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
