NANOSTRUCTURE FORMATION IN CHIRAL POLY(AMIDE-IMIDE)S BASED ON DOPAMINE MOIETY AND N-TRIMELLITYLIMIDO-L-AMINO ACIDS IN THE MAIN CHAIN
Nanostructured poly(amide-imide) (PAI) materials have been produced by polymerizing a diamine monomer, 3,5-diamino-N-(3,4-dihydroxyphenethyl) benzamide, with four trimellitic anhydride-derived, imide ring-preformed chiral amino acid-based dicarboxylic acids. Polycondensation reactions were carried o...

Sumario: | Nanostructured poly(amide-imide) (PAI) materials have been produced by polymerizing a diamine monomer, 3,5-diamino-N-(3,4-dihydroxyphenethyl) benzamide, with four trimellitic anhydride-derived, imide ring-preformed chiral amino acid-based dicarboxylic acids. Polycondensation reactions were carried out in the presence of small amount of molten tetrabutylammonium bromide as a green molten salt medium and triphenyl phosphite as the activator by classical heating method. Field emission scanning electron microscopy micrographs showed that the prepared polymers are assembled by spherical particles, which are distributed uniformly and randomly, having nano-sized diameter ranged between 46-54 nm. According to X-ray diffraction patterns, all of PAIs are amorphous. They show excellent solubility in a variety of amide polar solvents and even in less polar solvents such as m-cresol and pyridine. The obtained PAIs were also characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ¹H NMR, elemental, and thermogravimetric analysis techniques. The effect of ultrasound on the morphology of polymers was also investigated. This study confirmed that the size of polymer particles was decreased and the shape of them was also changed. |
