Efforts have been devoted to synthesize and characterize processable polymers with desired properties.Herein, four different series of aromatic and aliphatic terpolyamides were prepared via solution phase polycondensation of 4,4'-oxydianiline and hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) with various diacids chlorides (isophthalyol dichloride, terepthalyol dichloride, 1, 1'-ferrocene dicarboxylic acid chloride and transazobenzene-4, 4'-dicarbonyl chloride). The structural, morphological and physico-chemical nature of as prepared polymers was explored by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermal analysis (TGA and DSC), and wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXRD). Moreover, an aliphatic diamine was incorporated in varying concentration as a exible methylene spacer and the effect of its concentration on the properties of polyamides was also studied. Changes in various physicochemical properties such as solubility, inherent viscosity, surface morphology and ame retarding behaviour were investigated. Marked difference in morphology and solubility was observed with the change in the ratio of segments in the chain. Inherent viscosities of polymers ranged from 1.8052-1.6274 dl/g indicating reasonably moderate molecular weights. Interestingly, ferrocene based aromatic polymers were more thermally stable (T g 260 o C, T i 310 o C, T h 525 o C, T f 720 o C, for PF 0 ), and also found to exhibit best ame retarding behavior (limiting oxygen index (LOI) value for PF 0 is LOI 33.15 %).
