Abstract
A novel diamine monomer, 2,4-diamino-4′-carboxy diphenyl ether had been synthesized. Several polyimides were prepared by reacting this diamine with commercially available dianhydrides, such as benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride (BTDA), 4,4′-bis{hexafluoroisopropylidene bis (phthalic anhydride)}(6-FDA), oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA) and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid dianhydride (BPDA). Furthermore, copolymers from the resulting diamine and oxydianiline (ODA) with 6 FDA were also synthesized. The inherent viscosities of the polymers were 0.42–0.67dlg−1. The polymers have good solubility in polar aprotic solvents, high thermal stability up to 410°C in nitrogen and high glass transition temperatures (Tg) ranging from 260–330°C. These polymers formed tough flexible films by solution casting.
