Abstract

Abstract Polyether ketones based on diphenols corresponding to the following general formula (I): <IMAGE> (I) wherein R1 and R2, independently represent hydrogen, halogen, C1-C8 alkyl, C5 or C6 cycloalkyl, C6-C10 aryl or C7-C12 aralkyl; m represents an integer of from 4 to 7; R3 and R4, may be selected individually for each X and independently represent hydrogen or C1-C6 alkyl, and X represents carbon; with the proviso that, on at least one atom, X, R3 and R4 both represent alkyl; the production thereof and application as films or composite films with other plastic films as well as their utilization as permeation membranes.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 160 words
Aromatic polyether ketones having the recurring structure unit: --O--E--O--E'-- (VII) wherein --E'-- represents a divalent radical of an aromatic ketone (VIIIa): ##STR29## wherein Ar and Ar'; which may be the same or different, represent difunctional aromatic radicals having from 6 to 50 carbon atoms; and wherein --O--E--O-- (IXa) represents a divalent diphenolate radical; characterized in that from 0.1 to 100 mol% of the diphenolate radicals (IXa) correspond to the following general formula (Ia): ##STR30## wherein R 1 and R 2 , independently hydrogen, halogen, C 1 -C 8 alkyl, C 5 or C 6 cycloalkyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl, or C 7 -C 12 aralkyl; m represents an integer of from 4 to 7, R 3 and R 4 , may be selected individually for each X and independently represent hydrogen or C 1 -C 6 alkyl, and X represents carbon; with the proviso that, on at least one atom, X, R 3 and R 4 both represent alkyl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 160 words
Aromatic polyether ketones having the recurring structure unit: --O--E--O--E'-- (VII) wherein --E'-- represents a divalent radical of an aromatic ketone (VIIIa): ##STR29## wherein Ar and Ar'; which may be the same or different, represent difunctional aromatic radicals having from 6 to 50 carbon atoms; and wherein --O--E--O-- (IXa) represents a divalent diphenolate radical; characterized in that from 0.1 to 100 mol% of the diphenolate radicals (IXa) correspond to the following general formula (Ia): ##STR30## wherein R 1 and R 2 , independently hydrogen, halogen, C 1 -C 8 alkyl, C 5 or C 6 cycloalkyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl, or C 7 -C 12 aralkyl; m represents an integer of from 4 to 7, R 3 and R 4 , may be selected individually for each X and independently represent hydrogen or C 1 -C 6 alkyl, and X represents carbon; with the proviso that, on at least one atom, X, R 3 and R 4 both represent alkyl.

Aromatic polyether ketones according to claim 1, characterized in that from 10 to 100 mol.% of the diphenolate radicals (IXa) are diphenolate radicals (Ia).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 123 words
Process for the preparation of the polyether ketones according to claim 1 by reaction of dialkali metal diphenolate with dihalogeno-diaryl ketones (VIII): ##STR31## wherein --Ar-- and --Ar'--, which may be the same or different, represent difunctional aromatic radicals having from 6 to 50 carbon atoms; and Hal represents halogen, such as fluorine, chlorine or bromine; characterized in that from 0.1 to 100 mol.% of the dialkali metal diphenolates are those corresponding to the following general formula (Ib): ##STR32## wherein X, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and m are as defined in connection with general formula I in claim 1; and in that the reaction is carried out in polar solvents, such as N-alkylated caprolactams or N-alkylated pyrrolidones.
