Abstract
Structurally different poly(arylene ether sulphone) (PES) copolymers were synthesized by reacting stoichiometric amount of dichlorodiphenyl sulphone (DCDPS) with bisphenols. The molar ratio of bisphenol-A and phenolphthalein (ESP)/hydroquinone (ESH)/resorcinol (ESR) was varied to prepare nine copolymer samples. Structural characterization was done by FT-IR and 1H-NMR studies. The initial decomposition temperature as well as temperature of maximum rate of mass loss in ESR and ESH copolymers were similar and a marginal decrease in these decomposition temperatures were observed by increasing the isopropylidine units in the backbone. High char residue at 800°C was observed in polymers having high content of phthalein units.
