Abstract

Hyperbranched polyaspartimides were successfully prepared from bismaleimides (A2) and triamines (B3) through the Michael addition reaction. Two bismaleimides of 4,4-bismaleimidodiphenylmethane (BMDM) and bis(3-ethyl-5-methyl-4- maleimidophenyl)methane (BEMM) and two triamines of tris(3-aminophenyl)phosphine oxide (TAPPO) and tris(4-aminophenyl)amine (TAPA) were employed in the preparation of these hyperbranched polyaspartimides. The chemical structures of the polymers were characterized with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), 1H and 31P NMR, and elemental analysis. Degrees of branching ranging from 0.51 to 0.69 were found with the polyaspartimides, ensuring their hyperbranched structure. The polymers also showed good solubility in common solvents, high glass-transition temperatures of 256 °C, and excellent thermal stability above 370 °C. ; JNL0004279
