Abstract
Aromatic polyamide-imides having hexafluoroisopropylidene and isopropylidene groups in the main chain of the polymer were prepared by reacting 4-chloroformylphthalic anhydride (CPA) and fluorine or non-fluorine containing diamines using low-temperature polycondensation. Polyamide-imides were obtained with high molecular weight and high yield. Thermal decomposition temperature and glass transition temperatures of polymers were above 460 °C and 275 °C respectively. Fluorine and non-fluorine containing polyamide-imides were cast into transparent films which were characterized by mechanical and water absorption analysis.
