Abstract
Abstract A group of six semiaromatic polyamides of 2,2′-[isopropylidenebis-(p-phenyleneoxy)]diacetic acid (Bisacid A2) were synthesized by low-temperature solution polycondensation techniques. Six different diamines were condensed independently with Bisacid A2 chloride in a mixture of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP and hexamethylhosphoramide (HMPA). The polymers were obtained in 82–95% yield and possessed inherent viscosities in the range from 0.32 to 0.63 dL/g. The polyamides were characterized by IR and 'H-NMR spectra. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polyamides were determined by gel-permeation chromatography. The thermal stability, thermal degradation kinetics, crystallinity, density, and solubility were also determined. A model diamide (MDA) was synthesized from aniline and Bisacid A2 chloride to confirm the formation of polyamides from diamines.
