Abstract

Abstract New economic prepolymers containing aromatic amide and imide groups, and terminated with olefinic groups, cure readily with heat, with or without catalyst and without the evolution of volatiles to give void-free, tough, flame-resistant, cross-linked and thermally stable imide-containing polymers. Diamine is reacted with an acidic material containing trimellitic anhydride or its derivatives and the resulting prepolymer diamine is further treated to provide olefincontaining end groups. The system can be dehydrated to afford the completely imidized prepolymer which can be used for solution and/or solid applications.
