Abstract
A series of thermoplastic oligoimides with a propargyl substituent in the side chain was synthesized by the method of high-temperature catalytic copolycondensation in the melt of benzoic acid based on the monomer 5- (2-propyn-1-yloxy) benzene-1,3-diamine (PBD), 2,2-bis-[(3,4-di-carboxyphenoxy)phenyl]propane dianhydride (BPADA), 2,2-bis-[(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP) and phthalic anhydride (PA). The uncured imide oligomers showed good solubility (>20 wt% in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone), wide temperature processing window (>50°C) and also flow well at 220°C. These imide oligomers were successfully converted to cross-linked structures after curing at 300°C. Cross-linked oligomers have a temperature of 5% weight loss >500°C and Tg >200°C.
