摘要： Aromatic polyamides are famous high performance polymeric materials for their excellent thermal, mechanical, electrical properties, which now a days became a dominant platform for modern polymer chemistry area. Triptycene unit like structures in polymer directly affects the physiochemical properties of polymer, thus polyamides especially with triptycene unit in their backbone with aryl ether linkage imparts combination of properties such as better solubility, melts processing characteristics, and better thermal stability in contrast with those of polymers without an aryl-ether linkageNew triptycene-containing bis(ether amine), 1,4-bis(4-aminophenoxy), 2, 3-benzotriptycene (4a) was synthesized from nucleophilic displacement reactions of P-fluoronitrobenzene with 1,4-dihydroxytriptycene, followed by reduction, and elucidated by FTIR, 1 H, 13 C NMR spectroscopy and HRMS. A series of new polyamides containing pendant triptycene group and flexibilizing ether linkages was synthesized by polycondensation of diamine with commercially available aromatic diacischlorides viz., terephthalylchloride (TPC), isophthalylchloride (IPC) and varying molar mixture of TPC and IPC accordingly. Synthesized Poly(ether-amide)s were found soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, DMF, DMAc, DMSO also could be cast into excellent transperent thin films. Inherent viscosities of polyamides were in the range 0.44–0.57 dL/g. Polyamides exhibited initial decomposition temperature (Ti), glass transition temperatures (Tg) and temperature at 10% wt loss (t10), which was determined by TGA were noted in the range 212 (cid:1)C–305 (cid:1)C, 295 (cid:1)C –309 (cid:1)C and 587 (cid:1)C–631 (cid:1)C respectively with 24%–54% char yeild at 900 (cid:1)C under nitrogen atmosphere, indicating its better thermal stability and moderate glass transition temperature.
