Synthesis and characterization of polyamides and poly(amide-imide)s derived from 2,2-bis(4-aminophenoxy) benzonitrile

A series of polyamides and poly(amide-imide)s were prepared by the direct poly-condensation of 2,2-bis(4-aminophenoxy) benzonitrile [4-APBN] with aromatic dicarboxylic acids and bis(carboxyphthalimide)s in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone [NMP] with triphenyl phosphite and pyridine as condensing agents. The synthesis of 4-APBN involves a nucleophilic displacement reaction in dipolar aprotic solvent with the alkali metal salt of p-aminophenol and an activated aromatic dichloro compound. Bis(carboxyphthalimide)s were prepared by condensation of 4,4^′-diaminodiphenylsulfone, 3,3^′-diaminodiphenylsulfone, 4,4^′-diaminodiphenylether, 4,4^′-diaminodiphenylmethane, 3,3^′-diaminobenzophenone, and trimellitic anhydride at a 1:2 molar ratio.

All polymers were soluble in aprotic polar solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide and NMP. The results of thermogravimetry revealed that all the polymers showed no significant weight loss before 400 °C.

Novel heat-resistant and organosoluble poly(amide-imide)s containing laterally-attached phenoxy phenylene groups

In this research a new diimide-diacid monomer, 2,2′-bis(4-phenoxyphenyl)-4,4′-bis(N-trimellitoyl)diphenyl ether (BPDPE) containing two laterally-attached phenoxy phenylene groups was prepared by the reaction of 2,2′-bis[(p-phenoxy phenyl)]-4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (PPAPE) with trimellitic anhydride in refluxing glacial acetic acid. Ether-hinged wholly aromatic poly(amide-imide)s with limited viscosity number values of 0.61–0.87 dL g⁻¹ were prepared by triphenyl phosphate (TPP)-activated polycondensation of BPDPE with diamines including PPAPE and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (DADPE). For comparative purposes, reference poly(amide-imide)s were also prepared by reacting diimide-diacid monomer lacking phenoxy phenylene lateral groups namely 4,4′-bis(N-trimellitoyl)diphenyl ether (BTDPE) with the same diamines under similar conditions. A model compound MODEL was also synthesized by the reaction of BTBPE with two mole equivalents of aniline to compare the spectral characteristics results. Number and weight average molecular weights were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) technique. The phenoxy phenylene-containing poly(amide-imide)s (all, except that of resulted from BTDPE and DADPE) had excellent organosolubility in common polar solvents. A low crystallinity extent was only observed using their wide-angle X-ray diffractograms (WAXD). A qualitative study showed the prepared polymers could also be cast into optically-transparent and flexible thin films. The ether-containing lateral groups attached to the ether-hinged macromolecular main chains had no substantial diminishing effect on the thermal stability of these structurally-modified poly(amide-imide)s.

Most of the polymers were soluble in aprotic solvents such as NMP and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), and afforded transparent, flexible and tough films upon casting from DMAc solutions. Measurements of wide-angle X-ray diffraction revealed that those polymers containing p-phenylene or oxyphenylene groups were characterized as crystalline polymers. Tensile strength and initial moduli of the polymer films ranged from 61–86 MPa and 1.83–2.21 GPa, respectively. Glass transition temperatures of the polymers were in the range of 231–340°C.

These polymers were readily soluble in various organic solvents and could be cast into transparent, tough, and flexible films. Their casting films showed tensile strength at break up to 86 MPa, elongation to break of 5–9%, and initial moduli up to 2.35 GPa. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction revealed that those polymers containing p-phenylene or p-oxyphenylene group are partially crystalline, and the other polymers are evidenced as amorphous patterns. These polymers show a glass transition in the range of 213–290°C in their differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) traces. The thermal stability of the polymers was evaluated by thermogravimetry analysis, which showed the 10% weight-loss temperatures in the range of 508–565°C in nitrogen and 480–529°C in air atmosphere. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

An electrochemical investigation of novel optically active poly(amide-imide)s based on natural amino acids using multi-wall carbon nanotubes paste electrode

The main aim of this research was to study the electrochemical behavior of novel optically active poly(amide-imide)s (PAIs). Polycondensation reactions of a 3,5-diamino-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzamide with different synthetic diacid chlorides derivatives based on natural amino acids resulted in preparation of five different aromatic–aliphatic PAIs. These polymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, and elemental analyses. Also, we used electrochemical impedance spectroscopy for the evaluation of these novel optically active PAIs for the first time. Presence of p-substituted phenol groups in the structure of these polymers has been used for electrochemical investigation. Results showed that the oxidation currents in five diverse polymers were affected by their structures. In addition, the influence of carbon nanotubes on the oxidation of phenolic groups was studied using carbon paste matrix in an aqueous buffer solution (pH 7.0).
