“…Nesmeyanov Institute of Organoelement Compounds RAS (Moscow, Russia and presented in the form of films that were used as objects of research: - Polynaphthoyleneimidobenzimidazole PNIB
was derived from the dianhydride of 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid (DNTA) and 5(6)-amino-2-( p -aminophenyl) benzimidazole (DAB) according to the method [ 14 , 15 ]; - Copolynaphthoyleneimidobenzimidazoles of the statistical structure PNI-4:
containing 2,2′-disulfobenzidine (DSB) links were prepared by high-temperature polycondensation of DNTA, DAB and DSB. Changing the molar ratio of DAB and DSB regulated the number of links containing “hydrophilic” (acidic) sulfonic groups in the copolymer main chain [ 9 ]; - Statistically structured PNI-5 copolynaphthoyleneimidobenzimidazoles based on DAB and 3,5-diaminomesitylene (DAM) were prepared similarly to PNIB and PNI-4 [ 16 ]:
