Abstract: | A novel method for the preparation of 2,2′-diphenoxy-4,4′,5,5′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride have been investigated. This new dianhydride contains flexible phenoxy side chain and a twist biphenyl moiety and it was synthesized by the nitration of an N-methyl protected 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride and subsequent aromatic nucleophilic substitution with phenoxide. The overall yield was up to 75%. The dianhydride was polymerized with five different aromatic diamines to afford a series of aromatic polyimides. The polyimide properties such as inherent viscosity, solubility, UV transparency and thermaloxidative properties were investigated to illustrate the contribution of the introduction of phenoxy group at 2- and 2′-position of BPDA dianhydride. The resulting polyimides possessed excellent solubility in the fact that the polyimide containing rigid diamines such as 1,4-phenylenediamine and 4,4′-oxydianiline were soluble in various solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and chloroform. The glass-transition temperatures of the polymers were in the range of 255-283 °C. These polymers exhibited good thermal stability with the temperatures at 5% weight loss range from 470 to 528 °C in nitrogen and 451 to 521 °C in air, respectively. The polyimide films were found to be transparent, flexible, and tough. The films had a tensile strength, elongation at break, and Young's modulus in the ranges 105-168 MPa, 15-51%, 1.87-2.38 GPa, respectively. |
