Summary
-
1.
A laboratory method was developed for the preparation of polymers by the pyrolysis of alkylaromatic compounds.
-
2.
Polymeric products were synthesized from ethylbenzene, cumene, p-cymene, and diisopropylbenzene, and their structures were established with the aid of infrared spectroscopy.
-
3.
Explanations are given for some of the peculiarities of the polydehydrocondensation reaction.
