Abstract

Ladder polymers were synthesized by reaction of dihydroxynaphthalene and bisphenols with malondialdehyde and glutardialdehyde. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis were used to determine the thermal behaviour of the polymers, and conductivities of two representative polymers were measured. Ladder polymers with higher molecular weights showed better thermal resistance.
