Abstract
Disclosed are polymers and copolymers containing at least one repeating unit of the formula ##STR1## in which X is O or NH; R is a single bond or a hydrocarbon chain; R' is a hydrocarbon chain containing one or two carbon atoms, and P is the residue of an oligomer HX--P--XH whose solution viscosity determined in meta-cresol at 30.degree. C. at concentrations of 0.5 g/dl is lower than 0.50 dl/g.sup.-1. Also disclosed is a process for obtaining the polymers and copolymers.
Claims14
A polymer or copolymer comprising at least one repeating unit of the formula:
- ##STR24## in which R is selected from the group consisting of a single bond;
- a hydrocarbon chain --(CH.sub.2).sub.q --, q being an integer between 1 and 10 in which at least carbon atom is unsubstituted or mono- or disubstituted and may contain an aliphatic or an aromatic ring or an olefinic unsaturation;
- an ortho-, meta-, or para-phenylene group;
- and an ortho-, meta- or para- alkylphenylene group,
- R' is a --(CH.sub.2)-- group with p being 1 or 2, in which at least carbon atom is unsubstituted or mono- or disubstituted with an alkyl group selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl and propyl;
- or an ortho-phenylene group, and
- the group --X--P--X-- is the residue of a difunctional oligomer HX--P--XH, in which X denotes O or NH and P is an oligomeric chain selected from the group consisting of a polyamide oligomer, a polyester oligomer, a polyether oligomer, a polyetherester oligomer, and a polyblock oligomer of the formula:
- ##STR25## with a .gtoreq.1, wherein said polymer or copolymer is the reaction product by mass addition of at least one oligomer HX--P--XH whose solution viscosity determined in meta-cresol at 30.degree. C. at a concentration of 0.5 g/dl is lower than 0.50 dl g.sup.-1 and whose number average molar mass M.sub.n is between 300 and 5000, with at least one bisoxazinone and bisoxazolinone of the formula:
- ##STR26## in which X, R and R' are as defined above, at a temperature above the melting point of the at least one oligomer, and
- wherein said at least one oligomer is reacted with said at least one bisoxazinone and bisoxazolinone in a proportion such that the ratio ##STR27## is between 0.95 and 1.05.
A process for obtaining a polymer or copolymer comprising at least one repeating unit of the formula:
- ##STR28## in which R is selected from the group consisting of a single bond;
- a hydrocarbon chain --(CH.sub.2).sub.q --, q being an integer between 1 and 10 in which at least one carbon atom is unsubstituted or mono- or disubstituted and may contain an aliphatic or aromatic ring or an olefinic unsaturation;
- an ortho-, meta-, or para-phenylene group;
- and an ortho-, meta- or para-alkylphenylene group,
- R' is a --(CH.sub.2).sub.p -- group with p being 1 or 2, in which at least one carbon atom is unsubstituted or mono- or disubstituted with an alkyl group selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl and propyl;
- or an ortho-phenylene group, and
- the group --X--P--X-- is the residue of a difunctional oligomer HX--P--XH, in which X denotes O or NH and P is an oligomeric chain whose solution viscosity determined in meta-cresol at 30.degree. C. at a concentration of 0.5 g/dl is lower than 0.50 dl g.sup.-1 and whose number average molar mass M.sub.n is between 300 and 5000,
- and is the residue of a polyamide oligomer, a polyester oligomer, a polyether oligomer, a polyetherester oligomer, or a polyblock oligomer of the formula:
- ##STR29## with a.gtoreq.1, said process comprising carrying out a bulk addition reaction of at least one oligomer HX--P--XH and at least one bisoxazinone and bisoxazolinone having the formula:
- ##STR30## at a temperature above the melting temperature of said at least one oligomer, and
- at atmospheric pressure under an inert atmosphere,
- wherein said at least one oligomer is reacted with said at least one bisoxazinone and bisoxazolinone in a proportion such that the ratio ##STR31## is between 0.95 and 1.05.
