Polymers were isolated as white fibrous materials with inherent viscosities and number average molecular weights in the range 0.70-1.27 dL g(-1) and 76,620-1,36,720, respectively. Poly(ether ether ketone) s and poly(ether ether ketone ketone) s were found to be soluble at room temperature in organic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, and pyridine and could be cast into tough, transparent, and flexible films from their solutions in chloroform. Wide angle X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited a broad halo at around 2 theta = similar to 19 degrees indicating that the polymers containing pentadecyl chains were amorphous in nature. In the small-angle region, diffuse reflections of a typically layered structures resulting from the packing of pentadecyl side chains were observed. The temperature at 10% weight loss, obtained from TG curves, for poly(ether ether ketone) s and poly(ether ether ketone ketone) s were in the range 416-459 degrees C, indicating their good thermal stability. A substantial drop in glass transition temperatures (68-78 degrees C) was observed for poly(ether ether ketone) s and poly(ether ether ketone ketone) s due to ``internal plasticization'' effect of flexible pendant pentadecyl chains.

Inherent viscosities and number-average molecular weights (M-n) of the poly(arylene ether)s were in the range 0.50 - 0.81 dL g(-1) and 2.2 x 10(4) - 8.3 x 10(4), respectively. Detailed NMR spectroscopic studies of the poly(arylene ether)s indicated the presence of constitutional isomerism which existed because of the non-symmetrical structure of 3-pentadecyl 4,4-biphenol. The poly(arylene ether)s readily dissolved in common organic solvents such as dichloromethane, chloroform and tetrahydrofuran and could be cast into tough, transparent and flexible films from their chloroform solutions. The poly(arylene ether)s exhibited T-g values in the range 35-60 degrees C which are lower than that of reference poly(arylene ether)s without pentadecyl chains. The 10% decomposition temperatures (T-10) of the poly(arylene ether)s were in the range 410-455 degrees C indicating their good thermal stability. A gas permeation study of poly(ether sulfone) containing pendent pentadecyl chains revealed a moderate increase in permeability for helium, hydrogen and oxygen. However, there was a large increase in permeability for carbon dioxide which could be attributed to the internal plasticization effect of pendent pentadecyl chains.
