Novel Functional Polymers: Poly(dimethylsi1oxane)- Polyamide Multiblock Copolymer. 111. Synthesis and Surface Properties of Disiloxane-Aromatic Polyamide Multiblock Copolymer - Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 59(7), p.1059-1065, 1996 .

Disiloxane-aromatic polyamide (aramid)multiblock copolymers (2SiPASs)were synthesized using 1,3-bis(3-aminopropyl)-l,l,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxan(eB ATS)as an analog of aramidsilicone resin consisting of aromatic polyamide and poly(dimethylsi1oxane)(PDMS). 2SiPASs afford a transparent and toughened plastic film. The surface properties of 2SiPAS were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (xps)and static contact angle measurement. The results of surface analysis suggested that BATS content of the PSiPAS surface increased with increasing BATS content in bulk. The interaction between the platelets and the 2SiPAS surface was found to be very weak when the BATS content reached 26 wt
