A1 - Belomoina, Nataliya A1 - Schulz, Burkhard T1 - Heterocyclic polyamides containing hexafluoroisopropylidene groups N2 - New heterocyclic polyamides have been synthesized by solution polycondensation of aromatic diamines containing phenyl- quinoxaline units with diacid chlorides having both imide and hexafluoroisopropylidene (6F) groups. These polymers are soluble in polar aprotic solvents, such as N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and can be cast into flexible thin films from solutions. They show high thermooxidative stability with decomposition temperatures above 400°C and glass transition temperatures in the range of 225 - 300°C. The polymer films exhibit good chemical resistance towards deluted acids and good electrical insulating properties with dielectric constants in the range of 3.2 - 3.7.

The thermal cyclization of the poly(hydrazide-ester)s gave the corresponding poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole-ester)s containing pendent phenoxy groups. The polymers were characterized by viscometry, solubility measurements, IR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. Y1 - 1997 ER -
