Abstract

Long chain semiaromatic polyamides were synthesized by the reactions of decanediamine with various aromatic diacids and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR). The thermal behaviors were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The solubility, dynamic mechanical, physical and mechanical properties of the polyamides have also been investigated. The resultant polyamides have intrinsic viscosity ranging from 1.7 dL/g to 2.1 dL/g. Their melting temperatures range from 305°C to 343°C, and the glass transition temperatures fall in the range of 125–130°C. The tensile strength of the polyamides is above 100 MPa.
