Soluble Polyamides (soluble + polyamide)
Selected AbstractsPreparation of high-temperature polyurethane by alloying with reactive polyamideJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 20 2002Tsutomu Takeichi Abstract A series of novel poly(urethane amide) films were prepared by the reaction of a polyurethane (PU) prepolymer and a soluble polyamide (PA) containing aliphatic hydroxyl groups in the backbone. The PU prepolymer was prepared by the reaction of polyester polyol and 2,4-tolylenediisocyanate and then was end-capped with phenol. Soluble PA was prepared by the reaction of 1-(m -aminophenyl)-2-(p -aminophenyl)ethanol and terephthaloyl chloride. The PU prepolymer and PA were blended, and the clear, transparent solutions were cast on glass substrates; this was followed by thermal treatments at various temperatures to produce reactions between the isocyanate group of the PU prepolymer and the hydroxyl group of PA. The opaque poly(urethane amide) films showed various properties, from those of plastics to those of elastomers, depending on the ratio of the PU and PA components. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed two glass-transition temperatures (Tg's), a lower Tg due to the PU component and a higher Tg due to the PA component, suggesting that the two polymer components were phase-separated. The rubbery plateau region of the storage modulus for the elastic films was maintained up to about 250 °C, which is considerably higher than for conventional PUs. Tensile measurements of the elastic films of 90/10 PU/PA showed that the elongation was as high as 347%. This indicated that the alloying of PU with PA containing aliphatic hydroxyl groups in the backbone improved the high-temperature properties of PU and, therefore, enhanced the use temperature of PU. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Five Polyamides (PA) were prepared by the phosphorylation polycondensation of different dicarboxylic diacids with the diamine. Inherent viscosities of PAs were in the range 0.51,0.59 g/dL indicating formation of medium molecular weight polymers. The weight and number average molecular weights of a PA, (PA-d), determined by GPC were 6944 g/mol and 17,369 g/mol, respectively. PAs exhibited glass-transition temperatures (Tg) in the range 140,235°C. These polymers, essentially amorphous, were soluble in polar aprotic solvents such as DMF, NMP, DMAc, DMSO, pyridine, m -cresol, and THF. The initial decomposition temperatures (Ti) of PAs, determined by TGA in air, were in the range 300,380°C indicating their good thermal stability. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010 [source] Dehydration of benzene through fluorine containing aromatic polyamide membrane by pervaporationJOURNAL OF APPLIED POLYMER SCIENCE, Issue 1 2008P. K. Gutch Abstract A series of soluble polyamides were synthesized by direct polycondensation of the 5- tert -butyl isophthalic acid with different diamines. Solution (20%) of the polymers in suitable solvents was used to cast the membranes. The membranes showed selectivity toward the benzene (Bz) in a mixture of Bz/water (H2O). Water affinity of the membrane was found to be lower than that of Bz. The polyamide incorporating hexafluoro isopropylidene moiety was promising for the dehydaration of Bz and breaking of Bz/H2O azeotrope. The polymers exhibited inherent viscosities, ranging from 0.40 to 0.92 dL/g and 10% weight loss in synthetic air up to 474°C. Glass transition temperature measured by DSC and DMA reached up to 258°C. The membranes were pale yellow in appearance having tensile strength up to 85 MPa, modulus of elasticity up to 2.6 GPa, and elongation at break up to 9.5%, depending upon the exact repeating unit structure. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008 [source] Synthesis and properties of novel soluble polyamides having ether linkages and laterally attached p -terphenyl unitsJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 16 2004Sheng-Huei Hsiao Abstract A new ether-bridged aromatic dicarboxylic acid, 2,,5,-bis(4-carboxyphenoxy)- p -terphenyl (3), was synthesized by the aromatic fluoro-displacement reaction of p -fluorobenzonitrile with 2,,5,-dihydroxy- p -terphenyl in the presence of potassium carbonate, followed by alkaline hydrolysis. A set of new aromatic polyamides containing ether and laterally attached p -terphenyl units was synthesized by the direct phosphorylation polycondensation of diacid 3 with various aromatic diamines. The polymers were produced with high yields and moderately high inherent viscosities (0.44,0.79 dL/g). The polyamides derived from 3 and rigid diamines, such as p -phenylenediamine and benzidine, and a structurally analogous diamine, 2,,5,-bis(4-aminophenoxy)- p -terphenyl, were semicrystalline and insoluble in organic solvents. The other polyamides were amorphous and organosoluble and could afford flexible and tough films via solution casting. These films exhibited good mechanical properties, with tensile strengths of 91,108 MPa, elongations to break of 6,17%, and initial moduli of 1.95,2.43 GPa. These polyamides showed glass-transition temperatures between 193 and 252 °C. Most of the polymers did not show significant weight loss before 450 °C, as revealed by thermogravimetric analysis in nitrogen or in air. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
