Abstract
Three diamine monomers containing pyridine groups were prepared via the modified Chichibabin reaction of aromatic aldehydes with 4′-nitroacetophenone, followed by reduction with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of Pd/C. Novel aromatic polyamides containing 4-aryl-2,6-diphenylpyridine moieties and pendant fluorinated phenoxy groups were synthesized from these diamines and two fluorinated isophthaloyl dichlorides by the low temperature solution polycondensation in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). All the polymers are amorphous and readily soluble in strong polar organic solvents such as DMAc, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at room temperature. The resulting polymers showed glass transition temperatures between 270 and 314 °C and 5 % weight loss temperatures ranging from 442 °C to 475 °C, and char yields at 800 °C higher than 53 % in nitrogen. These polyamides could be cast into transparent, flexible and strong films from DMAc solution with tensile strengths of 72.5–87.3 MPa, tensile moduli of 2.35–2.87 GPa, and elongations at break of 5.3–9.5 %. The polyamide films exhibited low dielectric constants of 3.21–3.54 (1 MHz), low water uptakes in the range of 1.17–1.38 %, and high transparency with an ultraviolet-visible absorption cut-off wavelength in the 380–391 nm range.
