A series of aromatic polyamides containing an s-triazine ring with thiophenoxy linkages was synthesized from two new diacids, namely 2,4-bis-(4-carboxyphenoxy)-6-thiophenoxy-s-triazine and 2,4-bis-(3-carboxyphenoxy)-6-thiophenoxy-s-triazine, and commercially available aromatic diamines by using Yamazaki{\textquoteright}s phosphorylation reaction. The polyamides were obtained in good yields and were characterized by solubility tests, viscosity measurements, FTIR, H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction studies and thermogravimetric analysis. The polyamides were found to have inherent viscosities in the range of 0.35 to 0.56 dl g(-1) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) at 30 +/- 0.1 degreesC. All the polyamides were readily soluble in solvents such as DMAc, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and m-cresol. Thermogravimetric analysis of the polyamides indicated no weight loss below 345 degreesC under a nitrogen atmosphere. (C) 2004 Society of Chemical Industry.

Herein, we have investigated the effect of cationic precursor (manganese chloride tetrahydrate) concentration on the electrochemical performance of successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR)-deposited Mn3O4\ thin films. The concentration of the cationic precursor was varied from 0.05 to 0.15 M, and its effect on physicochemical and electrochemical properties was studied. X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses confirmed that Mn3O4\ has a tetragonal structure with Mn2+\ and Mn3+\ oxidation states. SEM micrographs revealed that nanoclusters of Mn3O4\ with an average size of ~200 nm were formed. Moreover, transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that these nanoclusters were formed from tiny square nanoplates with a size of ~40 nm. Electrochemical studies of the synthesized Mn3O4\ thin films were recorded in a three-electrode system, which suggests that 0.1 M cationic precursor concentration has a good electrochemical signature with a specific capacitance of 470 F/g at 1 mA/cm2\ current density in 1 M Na2SO4\ aqueous electrolyte. The cyclic stability offered was appreciable, with capacitive retention of 75\% up to 10,000 CV cycles scanned at 100 mV/s. The charge storage kinetics of the SILAR-grown Mn3O4\ thin film were investigated. With systematic study we concluded that, the molarity of the cationic precursor plays a vital role in the porosity and microstructure which drastically affects the electrochemical performance.
