MONOMERS DERIVED FROM HYDROXY ACIDS AND POLYMERS PREPARED THEREFROM

摘要

Dihydroxy monomer compounds having formula (1) wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected from hydrogen or straight or branched alkyl groups having up to 18 carbon atoms; R3 is selected from -CH=CH- and (-CH2-)k, wherein k is between 0 and 6, inclusive; each Z is independently bromine or iodine, d and n are independently 0, 1 or 2 and X is hydrogen or a pendent group having structure (A) wherein Y is selected from straight or branched alkyl and alkylaryl groups having up to 18 carbon atoms. Poly(amide carbonates) and poly(esteramides) polymerized from the dihydroxy monomer compounds are also disclosed.
