Abstract

AbstractIn this paper we attempt to trace the course of development of our work on aromatic copolyesters starting in 1963 with the successful polymerization of p‐hydroxybenzoic acid and its aromatic copolyesters and continuing up to the present. In so doing a number of interesting issues are identified which provide us with important insights into the rapidly changing research environment of the past 30 years. Perhaps more importantly, some of the key requirements for successfully carrying out research into the 21st Century within a University framework begin to emerge. As part of the overview, a brief retrospective of work over the last 40 years in the field of high temperature polymers is given to provide a suitable background to the motivation for our research.
