โฆ Synopsis
Various soluble polyimides with bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone and three kinds of dianhydrides were prepared in a polar N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solvent by the traditional chemical two-step method. All the polymers synthesized had good solubilities in polar solvents and excellent thermal properties. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction studies showed that all polyimides were amorphous. Polyimide ultrafiltration asymmetric membranes were successfully prepared by the traditional phase-inversion method. The cross sections of the polyimide ultrafiltration membranes showed a very thin surface layer and a porous sublayer. The pure water flux was very high and the solute rejection rate at poly(ethylene glycol) of MW 20,000 was above 90%.

The hindered diffusion of polystyrene in dilute solutions of ethyl acetate through polyimide ultrafiltration membranes has been investigated. The present system did not show specific membrane-solute interactions; furthermore, polystyrene can be considered as a flexible polymer coil. It is shown that
In a previous work, sodium alginate dense membranes demonstrated a good combination of selectivity and permeation flux for dehydrating organic solvents by pervaporation.

The thermal and flame-retardant properties of homo-and copolyimides were evaluated. Those containing sulfone linkages in the backbone were found to be more flame retardant. Both properties were dependent on the composition. A polyimide/ silica nanocomposite was obtained through sol-gel processing. T
