The Synthesis and Structure of Polyphosphazenes

Abstract

A substantial number of new polymer systems have been synthesized and developed to make use of the valuable properties imparted by inorganic elements incorporated into a macromolecular structure. The new polymers range from solvent-resistant elastomers to non-burning materials, and species that form excellent membranes and structural materials. The work has led also to the development of a system for understanding the relationship between polymer structure and useful property combinations in ways that should assist the rapid evolution of new polymers needed for specific specialized applications. Polymers, Materials, Polyphosphazenes, Elastomers, Membranes, Composites, Fire-resistant materials.
