✦ Synopsis


The heat capacity of crystalline poly(p-phenylenebenzobisoxazole) was measured below room temperature by adiabatic calorimetry. The standard thermodynamic functions (enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs energy) were established and tabulated. The temperature dependence of the heat capacity was compared with those of polyethylene and poly(p-phenylene), with attention paid to the low dimensionality of the systems.
