Series of novel diamines containing pendent ethynyl groups synthesized and reacted with various dianhydrides to form polyamide acids cyclodehydrated to form polyimides containing pendent ethynyl groups. Copolyimides of these diamines and other diamines also prepared. Upon heating, ethynyl groups in these polymers react with one another to form cross-linked molecular structures. As result of curing reaction, resistance to solvents, glass-transition temperature, and modulus of elasticity of polymer of this type generally increase, accompanied by corresponding decrease in tensile elongation and toughness. Cured polymers used as films, moldings, adhesives, and composite matrices.
