✦ Synopsis

Rigid rod polymers containing long rigid side chains have been prepared.

The initial approach to this class of materials involved the synthesis of a poly(p-phenyleneterephthalamide) (PPT) backbone with diphenylthiazolothiazole pendant groups.

The synthesis and preliminary characterization of the monomer and polymer are reported.
