In this study, synthesis and characterization of poly(dihalophenylene oxide)s were done by thermal decomposition of diamminebis(trichlorophenolato) copper(II) and diamminebis(tribromophenolato) Cu(II) complexes in solid state. 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP), 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP) and ammonia were used as ligands in the complex syntheses. The complexes were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, FTIR, DSC, mass spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility and C, H, N elemental analyses.
Synthesized complexes were decomposed thermally in solid state for the production of poly(dihalophenylene oxide)s. Polymerizations were carried out at two different conditions. In the first condition, the decomposition time was kept constant at 3 hours and temperature was varied for each sample to observe the effect of temperature on decomposition. In the second condition, the decomposition temperature was kept constant at maximum conversion temperature and the period of time was varied from 3 hours to 48 hours in order to define the effect of time on the decomposition. Synthesized polymers were characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, DSC, SEM, FAAS and viscometric measurements.
At the end of the study, it was observed that, the percent conversion and the structure of the polymeric product depend on polymerization condition and the type of the starting complex.
