Notes:
A heat-resistant polybismaleimide was obtained by the thermal polymerization of bis(maleimidophenoxy)- tetrakis(phenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene. The thermal stabilities of the polybismaleimide were evaluated in nitrogen and in air by thermogravimetric analysis. The polybismaleimide was stable to 340°C and has char yield of 70% at 800°C in nitrogen and of 60% at 700°C in air. The monomer bismaleimide was obtained by the reaction of bis(4-aminophenoxy)tetrakis(phenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene with maleic anhydride. The diamine was synthesized by a stepwise reaction of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with phenol and 4-nitrophenol to give bis(4-nitrophenoxy)tetrakis(phenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene and reducing the nitro groups. The structure of the cyclotriphosphazenes were characterized using Fourier transform infrared (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy, and elemental analysis.
