ABSTRACT

In addition to possessing excellent chemical, mechanical, and thermal stability, polyimides and polyetherimides have excellent solubility in many solvents, which renders them suitable for membrane preparation. Two new monomers [a pentiptycene-based dianhydride (PPDAn) and a pentiptycene imide-containing diamine (PPImDA)] and a pentiptycene-based polyimide [PPImDA-4,4'-hexafluoroisopropylidene diphthalic anhydride (PPImDA-6FDA)] have been synthesized and characterized by FTIR and
