Fully aromatic polyamides are synthesized by interfacial polycondensation of diamines and dicarboxylic acid dichlorides or by solution condensation at low temperature. For the synthesis of poly(p-benzamide)s the low-temperature polycondensation of 4-aminobenzoyl chloride hydrochloride is applicable in a mixture of N-methylpyrrolidone and calcium chloride as solvent. The rate of the reaction and molecular weight are influenced by many factors, like the purity of monomers and solvents, the mode of monomer addition, temperature, stirring velocity, and chain terminators. Also, the type and amount of the neutralization agents which react with the hydrochloric acid from the condensation reaction, play an important role. Suitable are, e.g., calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide. 

In concluding this section, we should touch upon phase boundary concentration data for poly(p-benzamide) dimethylacetamide + 4% LiCl [89], poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA Kevlar)-sulfuric acid [90], and (hydroxy-propyl)cellulose-dichloroacetic acid solutions [91]. Although not included in Figs. 7 and 8, they show appreciable downward deviations from the prediction by the scaled particle theory for the wormlike hard spherocylinder. Arpin and Strazielle [30] found a negative concentration dependence of the reduced viscosity for PPTA in dilute Solution of sulfuric acid, as often reported on polyelectrolyte systems. Therefore, the deviation of the Ci data for PPTA in sulfuric acid from the scaled particle theory may be attributed to the electrostatic interaction. For the other two systems too, the low C] values may be due to the protonation of the polymer, because the solvents of these systems are very polar. 

A major impetus was given to work, both academic and industrial, in the field of lyotropic systems by the development by duPont of commercial fibres having exceptionally high tensile strength and modulus through use of nematic anisotropic solutions of relatively rigid-chain aromatic polyamides. The earliest product to appear, Fibre B, was based upon poly (p-benzamide) (I)10), but was replaced by the fully commercial product, Kevlar, based upon poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide) (II) U). Arenka, from Akzo, also has the latter chemical repeating unit. 

These critical values differ from solvent to solvent. With the solvents most fully investigated, sulphuric acid for poly-(p-phenylene terephthalamide) and dimethyl acetamide/lithium chloride for poly (p-benzamide), there are also critical values of solvent composition the sulphuric acid must exceed a critical strength, the lithium chloride in the dimethyl acetamide must exceed a critical concentration. The critical values are, of course, interdependent rather than absolute. Diagrams that display some of the critical values for the two systems cited have been published in patents10,1 l Figures 3 and 4 illustrate the type of information available.

The solution of pam-arormtic polyamides occupy a special place among the systems forming liquid crystalline order. Two typical representatives of this class of polymers turn out to be best studied owing to their practical importance. These are poly-(p-benzamide) (PBA)...

Moreover, this bending and possible differences in the hindrance to intramolecular rotations explain " the variation in the segment length A between poly-(p-benzamide) and poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) molecules (Table 9).

Polyamides Via the Phosphorylation Reaction Poly-p-benzamide (PBA) and iV-Methyl PBA Copolymers... 

Several routes for the synthesis of poly-p-benzamide (PBA) have been reported. The routes[1-2] that yield high molecular weight PBA (i.e., ninh 3.5 determined in cone, sulfuric acid) have employed acid chloride monomers, such as I or II (1-2).

The composite systems studied by Takayanagi et al. (1980) used the polyaramides poly(p-phenylene terephthamide), PPDT, or pol.y-p-benzamide (PBA) as the reinforcing component with nylon 6 or nylon 66 as the ductile matrix polymer. Block copolymers of one of the aromatic polyamides with one of the nylon polymers were also evaluated. The blends were prepared by extruding the sulfuric acid solutions of polymers into a...
