AI Technical Summary
Existing thermoplastic resins are prone to softening under high-temperature service conditions, making it difficult to balance heat resistance and melt processability, and there is a lack of effective control methods.
Polyetherimides containing thioether structures were prepared by solution polycondensation. By controlling the amount and temperature of the oxidant and combining it with aprotic solvents and phase separation technology, polyetherimides with high glass transition temperatures were prepared.
A polyetherimide resin with high glass transition temperature, good melt processability, and high mechanical strength was obtained. The process is simple, the cost is low, and the performance is controllable.
