Abstract

AbstractThe preparation of copolyhydrazides containing equimolar quantities of “bisacetyl A2” and terephthaloyl or isophthaloyl groups is described. The resulting copolymers were found to form clear colorless films which, when immersed in concentrated formic acid, softened but rehardened and turned white after subsequent immersion in water. The formic acid treatment did not bring about a morphological change from the amorphous to the crystalline state, but caused changes in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) traces which suggest that an α/β transformation had taken place. The possible nature of this transition is discussed. The results of tensile tests on cast film are given.
