Sumario:For the first time, the effect of the solvent and monomer ratio on molecular weight, chemical structure, and mechanical, thermal, and rheological characteristics of polyphenylene sulfone has been studied. When dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is used as a solvent, cross-linking occurs during the processing of the polymer, which is accompanied by an increase in melt viscosity. This fact sets a pressing need for the complete removal of DMSO from the polymer. The best solvent used for the production of PPSU is N,N-dimethylacetamide. This study of the molecular weight characteristics of polymers by gel permeation chromatography showed the stability of the polymers practically does not change with a decrease in molecular weight. The synthesized polymers correspond in tensile modulus to the commercial analog Ultrason-P, while exceeding it in terms of tensile strength and relative elongation at break. Thus, the developed polymers are promising for spinning hollow fiber membranes with a thin selective layer.
