PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF MODIFIED POLY-M-PHENOXYLENES

Abstract

A series of modified poly-m-phenoxylenes was prepared by the introduction of substituents into the aromatic rings of the polymer. This was achieved by the preparation of a sulfonyl chloride derivative which could undergo reaction with various amines and alcohols to form sulfonamide or sulfonate derivatives. These modified polymers were characterized by their infrared spectra, elemental analyses and inherent viscosities. The effect of the various substituents upon the thermal behavior of the polymers was determined by softening range determination, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential thermal analysis.
