Abstract:
Polymers containing silicon and nitrogen in the main chain with intrinsic viscosities in toluene up to 1.6 have been prepared by the condensation of hexamethylcyclotrisilazane with bisphenol A. When 4,4-dihydroxyphenyl is used as the diol, polymers with improved thermal stability are obtained. The screening of various other monomer compositions is described. The great stability of small ring silicon-nitrogen compounds under the influence of acidic and basic catalysts is demonstrated in a variety of experiments however, some conversion of octamethylcyclotetrasilazane to hexamethylcyclotrisilazane was observed at 175 degrees in the presence of aluminum or ferric chloride.
