Popis: A new naphthalene unit-containing bis(ether anhydride), 2,6-bis(3,4-di- carboxyphenoxy)naphthalene dianhydride, was synthesized in three steps starting from the nucleophilic nitrodisplacement reaction of 2,6-dihydroxynaphthalene and 4- nitrophthalonitrile in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution in the presence of potas- sium carbonate, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the intermediate bis(ether dinitrile) and subsequent dehydration of the resulting bis(ether diacid). High-molar-mass aro- matic poly(ether imide)s were prepared using a conventional two-step polymerization process from the bis(ether anhydride) and various aromatic diamines. The intermedi- ate poly(ether amic acid)s had inherent viscosities of 0.65-2.03 dL/g. The films of poly(ether imide)s derived from two rigid diamines, i.e. p-phenylenediamine and benzi- dine, crystallized during the thermal imidization process. The other poly(ether imide)s belonged to amorphous materials and could be fabricated into transparent, flexible, and tough films. These aromatic poly(ether imide) films had yield strengths of 104- 131 MPa, tensile strengths of 102-153 MPa, elongation to break of 8-87%, and initial moduli of 1.6-3.2 GPa. The glass transition temperatures (Tg's) of poly(ether imide)s were recorded in the range of 220-2777C depending on the nature of the diamine moiety. All polymers were stable up to 5007C, with 10% weight loss being recorded above 5507C in both air and nitrogen atmospheres. q 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
