A series of different molecular architecture (homo, random, block and gradient type) copolymers PI-3(a–e) were synthesized by solution polycondensation. Three different bischloroimide monomers [bischlorophthalimide 2a, bischloronaphthalimide 2b and bischloro (naphthalimide-phthalimide) 2c] were prepared and reacted with 4,4’-thiobisbenzenethiol by different synthetic routes. The chemical reactivity of these monomers 2(a–c) was examined by kinetic study of model compounds Nphenyl- 4-chloro-1,8-naphthalimide and N-phenyl-4-chlorophthalimide using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS). The difference in chemical reactivity of monomers was utilized to design molecular architecture of copolymer, and the influence of comonomers sequence on copolymer properties is investigated. The synthesized copolyimides PI-3(a–e) integrated the excellent properties of naphthalimide and phthalimide as good organosolubility, high glass transition temperature
of 198–319 oC and good thermooxidative stability based on 5% weight loss temperature of 492–524 oC and 480–532 oC in nitrogen and air, respectively. Gradient type sequence PI-3e offers a good combination of phthalimide and naphthalimide groups in copolymers for improved thermal and mechanical properties.
