Heat‐Resistant Polymers

Abstract: The intensive interest in heat‐resistant polymers results from new technological processes requiring higher use temperatures for development. Thermally stable or high performance polymers dictate high melting (softening) temperatures, resistance to oxidative degradation at elevated temperature, resistance to other (nonoxidative) thermolytic processes, and stability to radiation and chemical reagents. A number of thermally stable polymers have been synthesized, but in general the types of structures t… Show more

“…Wholly aromatic polyimides are noted for their high‐temperature resistance and physicomechanical properties which make them desirable for a variety of high‐performance applications in the fields of aerospace, automobiles, microelectronics, optoelectronics and others 1–5. However, most polyimides are often insoluble, do not show a glass transition and are intractable in their fully imidized form, thus showing severe difficulties in processing.…”

“…Fully aromatic poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s form a class of high-performance polymers that are designated for use in small quantities, but with very high end-value [1,2]. The areas of high performance include electronic properties, electric conduction, optical properties, good hydrolytic stability, highly ordered systems, mechanical resistance and high thermal stability.…”

“…It is known that aromatic poly(1,3,4‐oxadiazole)s exhibit high thermal resistance in an oxidative atmosphere, good hydrolytic stability, low dielectric constant, and tough mechanical properties 1, 2. More recently, specific properties determined by the electronic structure of oxadiazole ring, especially its electron‐withdrawing character, reinvigorated intensive research aimed at using such polymers as advanced materials in microelectronics, optoelectronics, and other industries.…”
