SYNTHESIS OF REGULATED STRUCTURE POLYPHENYLETHER-SILOXANE BLOCK COPOLYMERS.
Abstract:
In an attempt to prepare elastomers stable at high temperatures, polymers with molecular weights estimated to be as high as 100,000 were formed by condensation of p,p-dihydroxydiphenylether with diphenylsilanes. Thermal gravimetric analyses for some of these polymers are reported, and their thermal stability and elastomeric properties are discussed. The preparation of dihydroxy derivatives of diand poly- phenyl ethers by alkaline hydrolysis and by intermolecular dehydration is also described. Author
