Notes:
The preparation of poly-p-xylylene, , in 24-26% yield, by pyrolysis of p-xylene, is described in detail. The nature and amount of by-products of the pyrolysis were determined. The physical appearance and the following properties and reactions of the polymer are described: x-ray diffraction, crystallinity, optical constants, infrared absorption spectrum, degradation by autoxidation in solvents and by pyrolysis, dielectric constant and loss, sulfonation and chlorination. The significance of this data is discussed relative to an understanding of the mode of formation and the structure of the polymer.
