SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NEW AROMATIC POLYESTERS WITH DIFFERENT OXADIAZOLE MOIETIES

Abstract

Heterocyclic compounds are widely used in life sciences and technology. They find their application in drug industry also. Hence we focused our attention in synthesizing new heterocyclic monomers and aromatic polymers containing substituted oxadiazole ring by polycondensation reaction. The synthesized monomers and the polymers were characterized by the FT-IR spectroscopy, the crystalline nature by XRD, thermal stability by TGA analysis and their solubility was also investigated. These polymers exhibited excellent thermal stability and crystalline nature which shows a good potential for their wide application as multipurpose functional material. It is believed that the application of these polymers will be continually developed in future.
