Aromatic polyesters were prepared and used to decrease the brittleness of the bismaleimide resin composed of 4,4@-bismaleimidediphenyl methane (BMI) and o,o@-diallyl bisphenol A (DBA) (Matrimid 5292 resin). The aromatic polyesters included poly(propylene phthalate) (PPP), poly(2,2-dimethylpropylene

✦ Synopsis
A spectroscopic study of the photo-oxidation of poly(propylene-l,2-maleate), poly(propylene-l,2-o-phthalate) and poly(propylene-l,2-maleate-o-phthalate) under 280-480 nm radiation was investigated in detail. Results obtained indicate that, during photolysis of these polyesters, the primary photoreactions involve excitation of conjugated structures: carbonyl groups (in ester groups)--double bonds or carbonyl groups-phenylene rings. The secondary reactions occur by complicated mechanisms resulting in oxidation, scission, radical termination and cross-linking of structures present in the photolysed polyesters. Light of wavelength 280-480nm causes deterioration in the polyesters in the early stages of irradiation. Singlet oxygen does not react with these polyesters even during long periods of exposure. Photo-oxidation mechanism occurs by free radical mechanism.
