Synthesis and Thermal Curing of Poly(enaminonitriles).
Abstract
A thermally stable poly(enaminonitrile) has been synthesized by vinylic nucleophilic substitution polymerization. The polymer does not lose mass below 446 degrees, and retains > 70% of its original mass at 900 degrees (by TGA in nitrogen). Evidence is presented for an unprecendented curing reaction which does not involve the emission of volatile by-products.
