Abstract
Polymers which comprise polyene units possessing 5 or more conjugated aliphatic C-C double bonds and contain 1,9-disubstituted phenalenes as chemically bonded side groups are prepared by a process in which acetylene derivatives carrying 1,9-disubstituted phenalene groups are polymerized. The polymers obtained are used in the electrical industry or as reversible redox systems or for the antistatic treatment of plastics.
Claims4
A polymer which comprises polyene units possessing 5 or more conjugated aliphatic C--C double bonds in the polymer main chain, which contains, as chemically bonded side groups, 1,9-disubstituted phenalenes, wherein the polymer main chain is linked to the 9-position of the phenalene side groups.
