Abstract
A molecular composite of rigid-rod poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) and flexible-coil poly(benzimidazobenzophenantroline) has been prepare d, characterized, and shown to be thermally stable to at least 300 deg rees C. These results suggest that stable miscible blends of rodlike a nd coil-like polymers can be prepared by controlling the glass transit ion temperature of the flexible-coil polymer.
