Abstract: | Two types of aromatic polyamide particles were prepared from 4,4′-diphenyldicarbonyl chloride and 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid in a reaction solution containing water or pyridine. Particles obtained using water (PA-water) were coarse spheres containing COOH groups with a diameter of 1 µm. Particles obtained using pyridine (PA-pyridine) were smooth spheres containing COOH and COCl groups with a diameter of 80 nm. The molecular weight of PA-pyridine was less than that of PA-water. During modification of PA-pyridine using 4′-aminobenzo-15-crown-5-ether, the COCl groups reacted with NH2 groups of the crown ether in water, resulting in attachment of the crown ether to the particle surface. |
