Summary: | A novel engineering plastic, poly(decamethylene 2,6-naphthalamide) (PA10N) was prepared via a reaction of 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid and 1,10-decanediamine. The structure of synthesized PA10N was characterized by elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR). The thermal behavior was determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). Melting temperature (Tm), glass transition temperature (Tg) and decomposition temperature (Td) of PA10N are 320, 144 and 495°C, respectively. The solubility, water-absorbing capacity, and mechanical properties of PA10N have also been investigated. Pyrolysis products and thermal decomposition mechanism of PA10N were analyzed by flash pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The results show that the heat resistance and mechanical properties of PA10N are near to those of poly(nonamethylene terephthalamide) (PA9T), and PA10N is a promising heat-resistant and processable engineering plastic. |
