Abstract
New aromatic poly(amide-imide)s with high inherent viscosities were prepared by direct polycondensation reaction of diimide-diacid (I) and aromatic diamines using triphenyl phosphite in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP)/pyridine solution containing dissolved CaCl2. The bis(3-trimellitimidophenyl) phenyl phosphine oxide (I) was readily obtained by the condensation reaction of bis(3-aminophenyl) phenyl phosphine oxide (BAPPO) with trimellitic anhydride. The resulting poly(amide-imide)s showed high thermostability. Their decomposition temperatures at 10% weight loss in nitrogen atmosphere were above 532 °C and the anaerobic char yield at 800 °C ranged from 56% to 74%. Almost all the poly(amide-imide)s showed high glass transition temperature above 233 °C by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. These polymers were readily soluble in various organic solvents and by their casting into transparent, tough and flexible films can be easily achieved.
