Abstract
In this study a series of sulfur containing semi-aromatic polyamides has been successfully synthetized employing the biobased compound eugenol as starting material. The so-obtained polymers have been characterized through various techniques, including Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC). Furthermore, the thermal properties of the synthesized polyamides have been studied by means of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) providing valuable insights into their potential applications and performance under varying conditions. Moreover, it has been demonstrated the great influence of the diamine counterpart not only in the success of the polymerization reaction but also in the properties of the synthetized polymers. The obtained materials have demonstrated excellent thermal stability, dimensional integrity and favorable processing properties.
期刊介绍:
European Polymer Journal is dedicated to publishing work on fundamental and applied polymer chemistry and macromolecular materials. The journal covers all aspects of polymer synthesis, including polymerization mechanisms and chemical functional transformations, with a focus on novel polymers and the relationships between molecular structure and polymer properties. In addition, we welcome submissions on bio-based or renewable polymers, stimuli-responsive systems and polymer bio-hybrids. European Polymer Journal also publishes research on the biomedical application of polymers, including drug delivery and regenerative medicine. The main scope is covered but not limited to the following core research areas:
Polymer synthesis and functionalization
• Novel synthetic routes for polymerization, functional modification, controlled/living polymerization and precision polymers.
Stimuli-responsive polymers
• Including shape memory and self-healing polymers.
Supramolecular polymers and self-assembly
• Molecular recognition and higher order polymer structures.
Renewable and sustainable polymers
• Bio-based, biodegradable and anti-microbial polymers and polymeric bio-nanocomposites.
Polymers at interfaces and surfaces
• Chemistry and engineering of surfaces with biological relevance, including patterning, antifouling polymers and polymers for membrane applications.
Biomedical applications and nanomedicine
• Polymers for regenerative medicine, drug delivery molecular release and gene therapy
The scope of European Polymer Journal no longer includes Polymer Physics.
