Abstract
Synthesis and characterization of polyesters comprising 4,4'-dihydroxy bischalcone as main chain moiety is reported here. Polyester chalcone s were obtained by condensation of 4,4'-dihydroxy chalcones with adipi c and terepthalic acid respectively. The polymers were characterized b y IR and elemental analysis. The thermal and electrical behaviour were studied by TGA, DSC, and conductivity techniques respectively. The po lymers were found to behave like semi-conductors and were thermally st able.
