Abstract
Poly(amino-amide; PAA) particles consisting of p-phthalyl chloride and 3,3′-diaminobenzidine and 4,4′-diphenyldicarbony chloride and 3,3′-diaminobenzidine were prepared. The particles were then transformed by treatment with heat into poly(p-phenylenebenzimidazole; PPC–PAA) and poly(4,4′-diphenylenebenzimidazole; DPC–PAA) particles, respectively. The number ratio of ring-closing of the obtained product was found to be dependent on the processing temperature. However, the morphology and diameter of the products were not found to be temperature dependent. PPC–PAA particles were amorphous and DPC–PAA particles had a high degree of crystallinity. Further, upon heating up to 1,000 °C, poly(p-phenylenebenzimidazole) and poly(4,4′-diphenylenebenzimidazole) particles were transformed into carbon particles and carbon bulk, respectively. The poly(amino-amide), polybenzimidazole and carbon particles obtained were nano-sized spherical particles with narrow size distributions.
