Determination of Solvents for Thermally Stable Aromatic Heterocyclic Polymers

Abstract

We have developed and tested a relatively rapid experimental procedure to screen and rank potential solvents for aromatic, heterocyclic polymers. Polymers utilized in the study were meta-phenylene PBI, PDIAB, PBO, and ATQ. Quantitative criteria have been developed for using gas chromatographic data to determine solvents for aromatic, heterocyclic polymers. The criteria require gas chromatographic data and polar and hydrogen-bonding solubility parameters for the solvents of interest.
