Most of the polyimides exhibited good solvent solubility and could be readily dissolved in chloroform, sym-tetrachloroethane, N,N-dimethylformamide, NN-dimethylacetamide, and nitrobenzene. Their inherent viscosities were in the range of 0.33-1.16 dL/g. Wide-angle X-ray spectra revealed that these polymers were amorphous in nature. All these polyimides were thermally stable, having initial decomposition temperatures above 500 degrees C and glass-transition temperatures in the range of 248-281 degrees C. The gas permeability of 4,4'-oxydiphthalic dianhydride and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride based polyimides was investigated with pure gases: He, H-2, O-2, Ar, N-2, CH4, and CO2. A polyimide containing a -C(CF3)(2)- linkage showed a good combination of permeability and selectivity.
