Synthesis, structure, and properties of rigid‐rod polymers with special emphasis on poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) and poly(p‐phenylene benzobisthiazole) (PBZT) have been reviewed. Recent studies on chemical modifications and molecular simulations have also been given. After nearly 20 years of research and development, PBO fiber was commercialized in the late 1990s. However, due to processing difficulties, the concept of the so called molecular composites has not been successful. Development of the high compressive strength M5 and dihydroxy‐PBI fibers clearly suggest that there is potential for further developing properties of this class of materials. Opto‐electronic properties have also been reviewed.Synthesis of PBZT.magnified imageSynthesis of PBZT.

“…Perettie et al [2], [3] have presented some material property information about these advanced substrates including shrinkage characteristics above 80 "C. Although extensive research has been performed on PET to determine its viscoelastic and shrinkage characteristics [l], information on such characteristics of the alternative polymeric films is not readily available.…”

AbstreViscoelastic and shrinkage characteristics of alternative substrates for magnetic tapes are presented. The substrates evaluated include two polyesters (PET & PEN), an aromatic polyamide (ARAMID), a polyimide (PI), and poly(benzoxazo1e) or PBO. Thicknesses of the films range from 14.4 pm for PET to 4.4 pm for ARAMID. Results are also presented for ultra-thin magnetic tapes which use PET, PEN, or ARAMID as substrates. Based on their creep behavior (and relative cost), PEN or ARAMID appear to be suitable alternative substrates to PET.

“…Polysilicon, required to get performance adequate for logic circuits, requires process temperatures in-between the other two. Clearly, these temperatures are fundamentally incompatible with all but a very few plastics, 7 and if transparency is desired, options become even more limited.…”

Techniques for manufacturing organic electronic devices [organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), photovoltaic cells, transistors, and solid-state memory] are reviewed and analyzed with respect to cost and market fitness in comparison to competitive approaches based on silicon electronics. The conclusions are (i) OLED displays will be successful using infrastructure largely borrowed from liquid crystal displays, because they provide fundamental customer value not dependent on lower cost; (ii) OLEDs for general lighting and organic–inorganic hybrid photovoltaic cells currently confront substantial barriers in cost and efficiency, but solutions appear feasible and would lead to very large volume businesses; (iii) organic crossbar memories are promising, but require innovations in driver architecture and interconnection; and (iv) organic transistors have not yet found a viable major market, but have great promise for highly customized, small-volume product runs using digital patterning techniques.
