Synthesis and properties of novel polyimide/nylon‐6 triblock copolymers

Nylon‐6‐b‐polyimide‐b‐nylon‐6 copolymers were prepared by first synthesizing a series of imide oligomers end‐capped with phenyl 4‐aminobenzoate. The oligomers were then used to activate the anionic polymerization of molten ϵ‐caprolactam. In the block copolymer syntheses, the phenyl ester groups reacted quickly with caprolactam anions at 120 °C to generate N‐acyllactam moieties, which activated the anionic polymerization. In essence, nylon‐6 chains grew from the oligomer chain ends. All of the block copolymers had higher moduli and tensile strengths than those of nylon‐6. However, their elongations at break were much lower. The thermal stability, chemical resistance, moisture resistance, and impact strength were dramatically increased by the incorporation of only 5 wt % polyimide in the block copolymers. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Positron annihilation properties of copolyimides and copolyamides with microphase‐separated structures

The positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) of a series of copolyimides and copolyamides with microphase‐separated structures was measured to investigate the effects of different hard‐segment polymers on the PAL properties of soft‐segment domains of poly(dimethyl‐siloxane) (PDMS) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). The lifetime (τ₃) and intensity (I₃) of the long‐lived component are given as a function of the PDMS or PEO content for a series of copolymers, of which the density roughly obeys the additive rule except for the PDMS‐segmented copolyamides. The PDMS‐segmented copolyimides and copolyamides show much smaller I₃ values than those estimated from the additive rule. The lifetime distribution of the long‐lived component for the PDMS‐segmented copolyamides is composed of two components. The longer‐lifetime component is attributed to pure PDMS domains, and the shorter‐lifetime component is attributed to the polyamide domains, intermediate phases, and PDMS domains containing small amounts of short amide blocks. Despite the high PDMS content, the latter component is rather large. Thus, the positronium formation in the PDMS domains of the copolyimides and copolyamides is effectively reduced. This can be explained by the combination of the difference in the electron affinity of the PDMS and polyimide or polyamide segments and the incomplete phase separation. The PEO‐segmented copolyimides show much smaller I₃ values than those predicted from the additive rule. This is likely attributable to the effects of the intermediate phases. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 38: 1123–1132, 2000

Chain Conformation and Local Rigidity of Soluble Polyimides(Ⅱ): Isomerized Polyimides in THF

Two soluble isomerized polyimides(PIs)synthesized from 2,2′-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride(6FDA)with either 2,2′-dimethylbenzidine(2,2′-DMB)or 3,3′-DMB were investigated by means...     

Ion implant-induced change in polyimide films monitored by variable energy positron annihilation spectroscopy

6FDA-pMDA polyimide membranes were implanted with 140 keV N⁺ ions to fluences between 2 × 10¹⁴ and 5 × 10¹⁵ cm⁻². Variable energy positron annihilation spectra were taken and spectral features compared to previously reported changes in gas permeability and permselectivity of these membranes as a function of ion fluence. Positron data corroborate the explanation of these changes in terms of molecular damage caused by the implant: for fluences up to about 1 × 10¹⁵ cm⁻², the concentration of irradiation-induced defects merely increases with implant fluence; while fluences exceeding this threshold value create a second type of positron annihilation site, thereby marking a distinct change in the structure of the polymer, which is responsible for the vast improvement of gas permselectivity data found at the same threshold fluence.

Preparation and properties of processable polyimides having bulky pendent ether groups

A series of aromatic diamines containing pendent methoxy, phenoxy, and biphenoxy moieties were synthesized. By the reaction of diamines with 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), several kinds of polyimides having bulky pendent ether groups were synthesized. Thermal properties and processability such as melt processability and solubility in organic solvents of obtained polyimides were investigated by focusing on the chemical structures of their repeating structure units. It was found that the thermal stability and melt processability of the polyimides did not strongly depend on the existence of bulky pendent phenoxy and biphenoxy moieties. Their solubility in organic solvents, however, was improved by introducing the bulky pendent ether groups such as methoxy, phenoxy, and biphenoxy moieties into their repeating structure units. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Poly(arylene ether)s,poly(arylene thioether)s,and poly(arylene sulfone)s derived from a dihydroxy(imidoarylene) monomer

Novel poly(arylene ether)s, poly(arylene thioether)s, and poly(arylene sulfone)s were synthesized from the dihydroxy(imidoarylene) monomer 1 . The syntheses of poly(arylene ether)s were carried out in DMAc in the presence of anhydrous K₂CO₃ by a nucleophilic substitution reaction between the bisphenol and activated difluoro compounds. Poly(arylene thioether)s were synthesized according to the recently discovered one-pot polymerization reaction between a bis(N,N′-dimethyl-S-carbamate) and activated difluoro compounds in the presence of a mixture of Cs₂CO₃ and CaCO₃. The bis(N,N′-dimethyl-S-carbamate) 3 was synthesized by the thermal rearrangement reaction of bis(N,N′-dimethylthiocarbamate) 2 , which was synthesized from 1 by a phase-transfer catalyzed reaction. The poly(arylene thioether)s were further oxidized to form poly(arylene sulfone)s, which would be very difficult, if not impossible, to synthesize by other methods. All of the polymers described have extremely high T_gs and thermal stability as determined from DSC and TGA analysis. Poly(arylene sulfone)s have the highest T_gs and they are in the range of 298–361°C. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1201–1208, 1998
