Polyester, aromatic

Similarly, the addition of low quantities of vinyl or polyvinylthiazoles in the synthesis of aromatic polyesters increases the rate of polymerization (315). [Pg.398]

In the late 1980s, new fully aromatic polyester fibers were iatroduced for use ia composites and stmctural materials (18,19). In general, these materials are thermotropic Hquid crystal polymers that are melt-processible to give fibers with tensile properties and temperature resistance considerably higher than conventional polyester textile fibers. Vectran (Hoechst-Celanese and Kuraray) is a thermotropic Hquid crystal aromatic copolyester fiber composed of -hydroxyben2oic acid [99-96-7] and 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid. Other fully aromatic polyester fiber composites have been iatroduced under various tradenames (19). [Pg.325]

A polyester backbone with two HFIP groups (12F aromatic polyester of 12F-APE) was derived by the polycondensation of the diacid chloride of 6FDCA with bisphenol AF or bisphenol A under phase-transfer conditions (120). These polymers show complete solubkity in THF, chloroform, ben2ene, DMAC, DMF, and NMP, and form clear, colorless, tough films the inherent viscosity in chloroform at 25°C is 0.8 dL/g. A thermal stabkity of 501°C (10% weight loss in N2) was observed. [Pg.539]

Naphthalenediol. This diol is prepared by the alkah fusion of 2-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid (Schaffer acid) at 290—295°C. Schaffer acid is usually produced by sulfonation of 2-naphthol with the addition of sodium sulfate at 85—105°C. This acid is also used as a coupling component in the production of a2o dyes such as Acid Black 26. 2,6-Naphthalenediol is used as a component in the manufacture of aromatic polyesters which, as is also tme of the corresponding amides, display Hquid crystal characteristics (52).

PEN). This article also covers the increasingly commercially important high performance Hquid crystalline all-aromatic polyesters, eg, Vectra [70679-92-4], [82538-13-4] andXydar [31072-56-7]. [Pg.292]

Polyester Polyols. Initially polyester polyols were the preferred raw materials for polyurethanes, but in the 1990s the less expensive polyether polyols dominate the polyurethane market. Inexpensive aromatic polyester polyols have been introduced for rigid foam appHcations. These are obtained from residues of terephthaHc acid production or by transesterification of dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) or poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) scrap with glycols. [Pg.347]

Polycarbonates. Polyarjiates are aromatic polyesters commonly prepared from aromatic dicarboxylic acids and diphenols. One of the most important polyarylates is polycarbonate, a polyester of carbonic acid. Polycarbonate composite is extensively used in the automotive industry because the resin is a tough, corrosion-resistant material. Polycarbonates (qv) can be prepared from aUphatic or aromatic materials by two routes reaction of a dihydroxy compound with phosgene accompanied by Hberation ofHCl(eq. 5) ... [Pg.37]

Most polyesters (qv) are based on phthalates. They are referred to as aromatic-aHphatic or aromatic according to the copolymerized diol. Thus poly(ethylene terephthalate) [25038-59-9] (PET), poly(butyelene terephthalate) [24968-12-5] (PBT), and related polymers are termed aromatic-aHphatic polyester resins, whereas poly(bisphenol A phthalate)s are called aromatic polyester resins or polyarylates PET and PBT resins are the largest volume aromatic-aHphatic products. Other aromatic-aHphatic polyesters (65) include Eastman Kodak s Kodar resin, which is a PET resin modified with isophthalate and dimethylolcyclohexane. Polyarylate resins are lower volume specialty resins for high temperature (HDT) end uses (see HeaT-RESISTANT POLYAffiRS). [Pg.267]

Aromatic Polyester Resins. A number of attempts to commeicialize aromatic polyesters have been made. However, for reasons such as moldabiUty, clarity, and color stability, significant market share has never been achieved. [Pg.269]

Commercial aromatic polyester resins or polyarylates are a combination of bisphenol A with isophthahe acid or terephthahe acid (79). The resins are made commercially by solution polymerization or melt transesterification (47). [Pg.269]

As the author pointed out in the first edition of this book, the likelihood of discovering new important general purpose materials was remote but special purpose materials could be expected to continue to be introduced. To date this prediction has proved correct and the 1960s saw the introduction of the polysulphones, the PPO-type materials, aromatic polyesters and polyamides, the ionomers and so on. In the 1970s the new plastics were even more specialised in their uses. On the other hand in the related fields of rubbers and fibres important new materials appeared, such as the aramid fibres and the various thermoplastic rubbers. Indeed the division between rubbers and plastics became more difficult to draw, with rubbery materials being handled on standard thermoplastics-processing equipment. [Pg.9]

The successful development of polyfethylene terephthalate) fibres such as Dacron and Terylene stimulated extensive research into other polymers containing p-phenylene groups in the main chain. This led to not only the now well-established polycarbonates (see Chapter 20) but also to a wide range of other materials. These include the aromatic polyamides (already considered in Chapter 18), the polyphenylene ethers, the polyphenylene sulphides, the polysulphones and a range of linear aromatic polyesters. [Pg.584]

Polymers with no pretence of high heat resistance but which complement the existing range of thermoplastics used mainly in light engineering application, e.g. phenoxies and aromatic polyesters. [Pg.611]

Hillshafer et al. reported that aromatic polyester urethanes based on orthoph-thalic anhydride had better hydrolysis resistance than polycaprolactone urethanes, despite high acid numbers [91]. [Pg.807]

Liquid crystal polymers (LCP) are a recent arrival on the plastics materials scene. They have outstanding dimensional stability, high strength, stiffness, toughness and chemical resistance all combined with ease of processing. LCPs are based on thermoplastic aromatic polyesters and they have a highly ordered structure even in the molten state. When these materials are subjected to stress the molecular chains slide over one another but the ordered structure is retained. It is the retention of the highly crystalline structure which imparts the exceptional properties to LCPs. [Pg.12]

The inhibitive efficiency of boric acid polyesters differs greatly. The highest efficiency is exhibited by polyesters of boric acid, aromatic diols and triols. This derives from the fact that in this case the radicals are accepted not only by boron, but also by the aromatic nucleus. Among the aromatic polyesters, most efficient is ester of boric acid and pyrocatechin due to the Frank-Rabinovich cage effect. The efficiency of inhibi-... [Pg.88]

Aromatic polyesters constitute an important class of main-chain liquid-crystalline polymers, but present the inconvenience of their reduced solubility and very high transition temperatures (sometimes not detected before the degradation of the sample). Their processability can be improved in several ways [2,3], e.g., reduction of the rigidity of the mesogen, lengthening of the spacer, or introduction of lateral substituents. [Pg.383]

Kaeriyama et al. [10] reported on the Ni(0)-catalyzed coupling of 1,4-dibromo-2-methoxycarbonylbenzene to poly(2-methoxycarbonyl-l,4-phenylene) (4) as a soluble, processable precursor for parent PPP 1. The aromatic polyester-type PPP precursor 4 was then saponified to carboxylated PPP 5 and thermally decarboxy-latcd to 1 with CuO catalysts. However, due to the harsh reaction conditions in the final step, the reaction cannot be carried out satisfactorily in the solid state (film). [Pg.33]

Polyarylate It is a form of aromatic polyester (amorphous) exhibiting an excellent balance of properties such as stiffness, UV resistance, combustion resistance, high heat-distortion temperature, low notch sensitivity, and good electrical insulating values. It is used for solar glazing, safety equipment, electrical hardware, transportation components and in the construction industry. [Pg.428]
