Abstract
Poly(2,6-benzothiazole) (ABPBT), poly(2,5-benzoxazole) (ABPBO) were synthes
ized and their fibers were prepared by dry-jet wet-spinning technique. The
effect of heat treatment on the structure and properties of the fibers/film
s were studied in detail by the measurements using Fourier transform infrar
ed (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), wide-angle X-ray diffraction
(WAXD) and Instron tensile tester. The results not only showed that heat t
reatment had a significant effect on the macrostructure and microstructure
of fibers, making fibers more regular and improving their mechanical proper
ties, but also indicated that there was a suitable range of heat treatment
conditions. (C) 2000 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
