Abstract
Two new diacid monomers 4,4′-bis[5-(trimellitimido)napthyloxy]diphenyl sulfone and 4,4′-bis[5-(trimellitimido)napthyloxy]benzophenone were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic analysis. A series of poly(amide-imide)s (PAIs) were prepared from these diacids and aromatic diamines through phosphorylation reaction. The structures of the PAIs were characterized by infrared and 1H-NMR. The PAIs were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, electrical properties, solution viscosity and solubility test. The flexible linkages and pendant groups in the PAIs chain will disturb chain–chain packing and their effects on solubility, thermal stability and electrical properties were investigated. PAIs showed excellent thermal stability and good solubility. The dielectric constants of the PAIs were in the range 4.15–4.77. The PAIs have electrical insulation character and the film can be used in insulation of electrical items operating at elevated temperatures.
