The polyimides were characterized by solubility tests, viscosity measurements, IR, H-1-NMR, and C-13- NMR spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction studies, and thermogravimetric analysis. The polymides had inherent viscosities of 0.33-0.58 dL/g in m-cresol at 30 +/- 0.1 degrees C. All the polyimides were amorphous and were soluble in solvents such as NNdimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, and in-cresol. Thermogravimetric analysis of the polymides indicated no weight loss below 410 degrees C under a nitrogen atmosphere.

Homo- and co-polybenzimidazoles containing different content of pendant phenoxyamine groups were synthesized by condensation of 3,3'-diaminobenzidine with this acid and a mixture of this acid and isophthalic acid in different ratio in polyphosphoric acid. Copolybenzimidazoles with structural variations were also synthesized based on this acid and pyridine dicarboxylic acid, terephthalic acid, adipic acid, or sebacic acid. The polymers have good solubility in polar aprotic solvents and strong acids and they form tough flexible films by solution casting. The polymers were characterized by different instrumental techniques (FTIR, TGA, DSC, XRD, etc.) and for solvent solubility, mechanical properties, inherent viscosity, and proton conductivity. The inherent viscosities of the polymers vary in the range of 0.62-1.52 dL/g. They have high thermal stability up to 475506 degrees C (IDT) in nitrogen, high glass transition temperatures (T-g) ranging from 313 to 435 degrees C and good tensile strength ranging from 58 to 125 MPa. Proton conductivity of homo polymer is 3.72 x 10(-3) S/cm at 25 degrees C and 2.45 x 10(-2) S/cm at 200 degrees C (c) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.114</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%">Sarkar, Anjana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Halhalli, Mahadeo R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, Arun D.</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%">Polyimides based on aromatic diisocyanates containing pendent flexible alkoxy chains and aromatic dianhydrides: synthesis, characterization, and liquid-crystal alignment properties</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Applied Polymer Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High performance polymers</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">polyimides</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thermal properties</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APR</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JOHN WILEY &amp; SONS INC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN, NJ 07030 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">112</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">461-472</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Four new aromatic diisocyanates containing pendent flexible alkoxy chains, namely, 5-butyloxy-1,3-phenylenediisocyanate, 5-octyloxy-1,3-phenylenediisocyanate, 5-dodecyloxy-1,3-phenylenediisocyanate, and 5-hexadecyloxy-1,3-phenylenediisocyanate, were synthesized by Curtius rearrangement of the corresponding 5-alkoxy-1,3-phenylene diacylazides. These diisocyanates were each polycondensed with three commercially available aromatic dianhydrides: 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride, 3,3',4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride, and 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride-in benzonitrile in the presence of 1,4-dizabicyclo[2.2.2]octane as a catalyst to obtain a series of polyimides with inherent viscosities in the range 0.16-0.43 dL/g. Except for 3,3',4, 4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride based polyimides, all of the polyimides were found to be soluble in dichloromethane, m-cresol, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, tetra-chloroethane, and pyridine either at room temperature or on heating and could be cast into tough, flexible, transparent films from a solution in in-cresol or tetra chloroethane. X-ray diffractograms revealed that the polyimides with longer alkoxy chains had layered structures. The glass-transition temperature of the polyimides containing pendent flexible alkoxy chains were in the range 159-246 degrees C as measured by differential scanning calorimetry. The temperature for the 10% weight loss of the polyimides was in the range 410-460 degrees C in a nitrogen atmosphere, which indicated good thermal stability. A pretilt angle of 2.97 degrees was observed for the polyimide derived from 5-octyloxy-1,, 3-phenylenediisocyanate and 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride. (c) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Inherent viscosities of polyamides and polyazomethines were in the range 0.35-0.56 dL g(-1) and 0.33-0.38 dL g(-1), respectively, indicating the formation of medium molecular weight polymers. The presence of pendent pentadecyl chains in polyamides and polyazomethines led to an improvement in their solubility in organic solvents. Polyamides could be cast into flexible, transparent and tough films from their solution in N,N-dimethylacetamide while polyazomethines could be solution cast into transparent, flexible and stretchable films from their CHCl(3) solution. (1)H-NMR studies based on amide proton signals and azomethine proton signals indicated the presence of constitutional isomerism in the polyamides and polyazomethines. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited broad halo indicating that the polymers were amorphous in nature. X-ray diffractograms also displayed sharp reflections in the small angle region (2 theta approximate to 3 degrees) indicating the formation of layered structure arising from packing of flexible pentadecyl chains. The glass transition (T(g)) temperatures of polyamides were in the range 169-215 degrees C while T(g) values for polyazomethines were in the range 16-55 degrees C. The temperature for the 10% weight loss of polyamides and polyazomethines were in the range 430-460 degrees C and 425-440 degrees C, respectively, in a nitrogen atmosphere, which indicated their good thermal stability. Polyazomethines were also characterized by UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy and optical band gap (E(g)) values, calculated according to the maximum of the UV absorption, were found to be in the range 2.82-3.10 eV.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.884
