Synthesis and thermal properties of new polyester based on indane-1,3-diol and terephtaloyl chloride
New aromatic polyester was synthetized by polycondensation of indane-1,3-diol and terephthaloyl chloride. The indane-1,3-diol was synthesised by metal hydride reduction and characterized by IR, H-1 and C-13 NMR. TWO polycondensation methods was used : solution and interfacial polycondensation in presence of various quaternary ammonium salts The obtained polymers were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and viscosities measurements, All polymers had glass transition temperature (Tg) in the range of 72-77 degreesC and melting temperature (Tm) in the range of 152-184 degreesC.
