Sol-gel synthesis and characterization of polyimides based on the reaction of butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane
Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid is reacted with hydrolyzed 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) at 110 and 220 degrees C (molar ratios 1 : 1 and 1 : 2). The as-prepared materials were characterized by means of various analytical methods. FTIR measurements revealed the formation of a polyamic acid at 110 degrees C whereas the treatment at 220 degrees C resulted in the preparation of a polyimide. These findings were confirmed by means of SS-13C-MAS-NMR. XRPD experiments gave clear evidence for the formation of a specific periodic arrangement in the material. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the organicinorganic material has improved thermal properties. All the materials obtained were insoluble in water and organic solvents.
