This paper reviews our current work on the synthesis of new organic-soluble aromatic polyamides and polyimides having high glass transition temperatures above 300 °C. Our strategy to achieve this goal is to introduce a bulky pendant phenyl group along the polymer backbone and to incorporate a crank and twisted non-coplanar structure into the polymer main chain.
