Abstract: A series of rigid-rigid block copolymers composed of poly(etheretherketone)(PEEK) and poly(arylethersulfone) with biphenyl structure(HTA) were synthesized by polycondensation.The characterization,thermal properties and crystallization behaviour of the block copolymers were investigated by DSC,TGA,WAXD,and dynamic viscoelastic measurement.The results show that for the copolymers no phase separation is observed.The copolymers are crystalline polymers similar to PEEK,the crystallinity measured by DSC decreases obviously with increasing HTA content.The Tg of the copolymer containing 37.24%HTA is 183℃,and is 40℃ higher than that of pure PEEK. The melting point of the copolymer is nearly as high as that of pure PEEK.The PEEK/HTA copolymers have very good high temperature mechanical property.
