Abstract
  • This investigation of polybenzimidazole synthesis involved the two-stage low temperature solution polymerization of dialdehydes, One-step polycondensation of dialdehydes, two-stage melt polycondensation of diesters, and one-step solution polycondensation of diesters with 3,3'-diaminobenzidine. Dialdehyde or diester monomers were prepared which contained aromatic units which were hooked together with sulfonate linkages. Polymerization of these monomers with 3,3'-diaminobenzidine resulted in moderate viscosities of 0.4-0.8 dl/g in DMSO at 19°C. The polybenzimidazoles obtained appear to be linear; most of them when tested immediately after preparation, were largely soluble in certain acidic or dipolar approtic solvents. Films, obtained by dissolving the polymer in dipolar approtic solvents such as N,N-dimethylacetamide or N,N-dimethyl formamide, were flexible, clear, yellow to brown in color, and foldable depending upon which monomers and which polymerization methods were used.
