Summary
-
1.
A method was developed for the preparation of a polymer from p-cymene by thermal polydehydrocondensation in a yield of about 40% on the amount of p-cymene taken for reaction.
-
2.
An investigation was made of the effect of reaction time and reaction temperature in the polydehydrocondensation of p-cymene on the yield and molecular weight of polymer.
-
3.
An explanation is given of some of the peculiar features of the polydehydrocondensation reaction.
