Inherent viscosities of resulting polyimides were in the range 0.33-0.67 dL/g and number average molecular weights were in the range 14,700-52,200 (GPC, polystyrene standard). Polyimides containing pendent pentadecyl chains were soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, m-cresol, N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), pyridine and nitrobenzene. Strong and flexible films of polyimides could be cast from their chloroform solutions. Polyimides exhibited glass transition temperature in the range 158-206 degrees C.

A series of new poly(amideimide)s containing flexibilizing ether linkages and pendant pentadecyl chains was synthesized from 4-[4'-(hydrazinocarbonyl)phenoxy]-2-pentade-cylbenzohydrazide and commercially available aromatic dianhydrides, viz., benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, benzophenone-3,3',4,4'-tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride and 4,4'-(hexafluoro isopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride by a two-step solution polycondensation in N,N-dimethylacetamide via the poly(hydrazide acid) intermediate.

Wide angle X-ray diffraction patterns of poly(amideimide)s revealed a broad halo at around 2 theta = similar to 19 degrees suggesting that polymers were amorphous in nature. In the small-angle region, diffuse to sharp reflections of a typically layered structure resulting from the packing of pentadecyl side chains were observed. The temperature at 10% weight loss (T(10)), determined by TGA in nitrogen atmosphere, of poly(amideimide)s was in the range of 388-410 degrees C indicating their good thermal stability. Glass transition temperatures of poly(amideimide)s were in the range 162-198 degrees C. It was observed that the plasticization effect of attached pentadecyl side chains induced the depression of T(g). (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Inherent viscosities of the polyamides were in the range 0.45-0.66 dL/g in N,N-dimethylacetamide at 30 +/- 0.1 degrees C.

Wide angle X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited broad halo indicating that the polymers were essentially amorphous in nature.

Aromatic (co)polyesters containing ether linkages in the main chain and pendent pentadecyl chains were synthesized by the interfacial polycondensation of HPPDP with terephthalic acid chloride (TPC), isophthalic acid chloride (IPC) and a mixture of TPC and IPC (50: 50 mol %) and by polycondenation of varying composition of HPPDP and bisphenol-A (BPA) with TPC. The resultant (co) polyesters exhibited inherent viscosities in the range 0.70-1.21 dL g(-1) and number-average molecular weights in the range 16,000-48,200 (GPC, polystyrene standard). Polyesters were soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform and dichloromethane and could be cast into films from chloroform solution. Polyesters exhibited T-10 values in the range 430-455 degrees C and Tg values were in the range 29-202 degrees C. Dynamic mechanical storage modulus and maximum on transition of tan delta curve decreased with increased content of HPPDP in copolyesters. Importantly, the large difference between Tg and T-10 values offers the possibility to process these polyesters in the melt.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.85</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ichake, Amol B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nagane, Samadhan S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jadhav, Uday A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Torris, Arun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grau, Etienne</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cramail, Henri</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wadgaonkar, Prakash P.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthesis and characterization of partially biobased aromatic (Co)polycarbonates containing biphenylene units and pendant pentadecyl chains</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">aromatic polycarbonates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biobased bisphenol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cashew nut shell liquid</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pentadecyl chain</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Renewable resources</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2022</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">223</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2100449</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	2-Pentadecyl-[1,1''-biphenyl]-4,4''-diol (PBD) is synthesized starting from cashew nut shell liquid-a by-product of cashew processing industry. A new series of partially biobased aromatic (co)polycarbonates possessing biphenylene units and pendant pentadecyl chains is synthesized by solution polycondensation of PBD or varying compositions of PBD and bisphenol-A with triphosgene in dry dichloromethane. Inherent viscosities and number average molecular weights of (co)polycarbonates are in the range 0.51-1.24 dL g(-1) and 18 x 10(3)- 43.4 x 10(3) g mol(-1), respectively indicating the formation of reasonably high molecular weight polymers. Flexible, transparent, and free-standing films of (co)polycarbonates can be cast from chloroform solution. (Co)polycarbonates are characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. T-10 and T-g values of (co)polycarbonates are in the range 417-433 and 8-147 degrees C, respectively. It is demonstrated that the T-g values can be tuned by incorporation of appropriate mol% of PBD as a comonomer in Bisphenol-A-based copolycarbonates. The lowering of the T-g values of (co)polycarbonates can be attributed primarily to the packing disruptive effect of flexible pentadecyl chains. Furthermore, the effect of incorporation of PBD as a comonomer on water contact angle values of (co)polycarbonates is evaluated.&lt;/p&gt;
