Abstract

A novel synthetic process for the efficient control over molecular weight of the poly(ether sulfone) has been studied. The application of microwave irradiation for the condensation polymerization to synthesize poly(ether sulfone) is demonstrated. Microwave assisted polymerization results in significant reduction of reaction time. Microwave based process is also feasible at lower temperature for the synthesis of poly(ether sulfone). Polymers synthesized have been characterized using NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Polymer film morphology and surface composition have been studied using SEM and EDX. An increase in the molecular weight is observed with increasing microwave irradiation time.
