Polyquinoxalines Containing Flexibilizing Groups in the Chains

Macromolecules, 1970
Abstract : Solution condensations of either 3,3',4,4'tetraaminodiphenyl sulfone or 3,3'4,4'-tetraaminobenzophenone in combination with various bisbenzils or glyoxals lead to high molecular weight polyquinoxalines. The effect of polymer structure on solubility, glass transition and decomposition temperatures was investigated. Phenylated polyquinoxalines
