Article Description

The possibility of using imidazole as a catalytic component in the direct synthesis of poly( p -phenyleneterephthalamide) and poly( p -benzamide) by phosphorylation with triphenylphosphite was investigated. In the presence of imidazole it was possible to perform the whole synthesis in a homogeneous solution, thus avoiding the formation of a precipitate or a swollen gel, as usually described in literature, particularly for poly( p -phenyleneterephthalamide). Higher molecular weights were obtained in our systems, as compared to typical values from the direct synthesis method.
