Polybenzimidazoles (PBI)
Polybenzimidazoles (PBI, short for Poly-[2, 2’-(m- phenylen)-5, 5’-bisbenzimidazole]) is a kind polymer with benzo heterocyclic rigid chain. PBI is generally obtained from the condensation and cyclization of aromatic amine and diphenyl phthalate, reacting in molten state or in strong polar solvents. PBI is used in the military industry at its beginning, now the applications have covered semiconductor, membranes, petrochemical and many Others fields. Because PBI is always used after post-dealing followed the copolymerization process. When PBI is being used as the material base of parts of the planes, electric devices or Others product, it is usually not bought PBI resin, but the PBI bulk mold. Thus, this work is focused on the PBI molding products.
