Abstract
A series of ester-linked tetracarboxylic dianhydrides containing multiple para-phenylene units (TA-pPhs) was synthesized to obtain novel modified polyimides, namely poly(ester imide)s (PEsIs).

A series of ester-linked tetracarboxylic dianhydrides containing multiple para-phenylene units (TA-pPhs) was synthesized to obtain novel modified polyimides, namely poly(ester imide)s (PEsIs). The flame retardancy and film toughness of PEsIs tended to deteriorate with the structural extension of the repeating units (or monomers) via ester groups. To identify the structural factors necessary for achieving the highest flame retardancy rank (UL-94, V-0), we systematically investigated the structure–property relationships of a series of TA-pPh-based PEsIs. Among them, a PEsI derived from para-quaterphenylene-containing TA-pPh (TA-DPQP) and p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA) exhibited the best property combination, featuring an extremely high glass transition temperature (Tg), very low linear coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), low water uptake (WA), ultralow linear coefficient of humidity (hygroscopic) expansion (CHE), unexpectedly high film toughness, and excellent flame retardancy (V-0 rank). Moreover, we examined the effects of substituents of TA-pPh and discussed the mode of action for the increased film toughness. This study also investigated the structure–property relationship for a series of PEsIs derived from isomeric naphthalene-containing tetracarboxylic dianhydrides. Some of the PEsIs obtained in this study, such as the TA-DPQP/p-PDA system, hold promise as novel high-temperature dielectric substrates for use in flexible printed circuits. Full article

Water is regarded as an important natural resource to sustain life, and its purification is an important criterion that determines its quality and usefulness. In this study, the incorporation of Fe3+ oxide onto a phenylenediamine (pPD) polymer matrix through chemical co-polymerization was prepared, and its arsenite and fluoride removal potentials at optimal conditions from aqueous solution were evaluated. The morphology and structural analysis of the synthesized Fe-doped pPD (Fe-pPD) were comparatively evaluated using the FT-IR, SEM, EDS, and XRD techniques. Fe was successfully incorporated onto pPD matrix as confirmed by different morphological characterizations. The rate of adsorption of F− and As3+ onto the Fe-pPD composite best followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The experimental data for both As3+ and F− onto the Fe-pPD composite better fit the Freundlich isotherm model at different operating temperatures. Overall, the synthesized composite exhibited a strong affinity towards fluoride uptake (96.6%) than arsenite uptake (71.14%) with a maximum capacity of 6.79 (F−) and 1.86 (As3+) mg/g. Additionally, the synthesized adsorbent showed some level of antimicrobial activity against common water-borne bacterial. Therefore, the Fe-doped pPD composite has the potential ability for inorganic metal species pollutants remediation and bacterial disinfection in community-level water purification processes.

In this study, macroporous graphene aerogels (GAs) were synthesized by chemical reduction of graphene oxide sheets and were used as a support material for in situ synthesis of conductive poly(para-phenylenediamine) (p(p-PDA)). The in situ synthesis of p(p-PDA) in GA was carried out by using a simple oxidation polymerization technique. Moreover, the prepared conductive p(p-PDA) polymers in the networks of GAs were doped with various types of acids such as hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO3), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), phosphoric acid (H3PO4), respectively. The prepared GA and different acid-doped forms as GA/p(p-PDA) composites were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, and conductivity measurements. The observed FT-IR peaks at 1574 cm−1, and 1491 cm−1, for stretching deformations of quinone and benzene, respectively, confirmed the in situ synthesis of P(p-PDA) polymers within GAs. The conductivity of GAs with 2.17 × 10−4 ± 3.15 × 10−5 S·cm−1 has experienced an approximately 250-fold increase to 5.16 × 10−2 ± 2.72 × 10−3 S·cm−1 after in situ synthesis of p(p-PDA) polymers and with HCl doping. Conductivity values for different types of acid-doped GA/p(p-PDA) composites were compared with the bare p(p-PDA) and their undoped forms. Moreover, the changes in the conductivity of GA and GA/p(p-PDA) composites upon CO2 gas exposure were compared and their sensory potential in terms of response and sensitivity, along with reusability in CO2 detection, were evaluated.

The Pt elements are prepared via the redox reaction with microwave (MW) irradiation in the presence of poly(p-phenylenediamine) (PpPD) which is polymerized on XC72 carbon matrix (PpPD/XC72), behaving as reducing agent. The free primary amines of PpPD are actually converted (oxidized) to secondary ones (5,10-dihydrophenazine) after MW irradiation. Transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) micrographs reveal the prepared Pt nanoparticles are well-dispersed on the carbon matrix like commercial Pt-implanted carbon nanocomposite (Pt/C). From the residue weights of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) thermograms of Pt-loaded PpPD/XC72 (PpPD/XC72-Pt-MW), more Pt (18.49 wt %) nanoparticles are implanted on PpPD/XC72 composite. The Pt-implanted wt % on PpPD/XC72 matrix is just slightly lower than that of commercial Pt/C (22.30 wt %). The Pt-catalyst supports of PpPD/XC72-Pt-MW illustrate typical cyclic voltammograms (C-V) of Pt-catalyst, including significant Pt–H oxidation and Pt–O reduction peaks. The electrochemical active surface area of PpPD/XC72-Pt-MW is found to be as high as 60.1 m2 g−1. Max. number of electron transfer during oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) approaches 3.83 for PpPD/XC72-Pt-MW, higher than that of commercial Pt/C (3.62). Single cell based on PpPD/XC72-Pt-MW demonstrates much higher specific max. power density to be 34.6 mW cm−2 Pt, higher than that single cell prepared with commercial Pt/C electrode (30.6 mW cm−2 Pt).
