Abstract A series of new aromatic polyimides (Pi1 - Pi6) containing methylene unit, flexible ether linkages (containing naphthalene rings), and Schiff-base linkages were prepared by solution polycondensation reaction of 1,2,4,5-benzene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) with new various aromatic diamines using a standard two-stage process with thermal imidization of poly(amic acid) films. The monomers were characterized by FT.IR, and some them by 1H. NMR. The resulting polymers were characterized by means of FT.IR, 1H.NMR spectroscopy, and solubility tests. All polyimides were readily soluble in polar aprotic solvents. The thermal stability, melting temperature and glass transition temperature of these polyimides were measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). These polymers formed tough flexible films by solution casting. | ||
