Table 1. Molecular and Thermal Properties of HBPs (P5a–c)a.
| Mn (g mol–1) | Mw (g mol–1) | PDI | Tg (°C) | T10 (°C) | Tmax (°C) | CY (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P5a | 4 494 | 14 435 | 3.2 | 223 | 354 | 290, 402 | 60 |
| P5b | 3 761 | 12 920 | 3.5 | 213 | 317 | 300, 406 | 50 |
| P5c | 3 282 | 11 443 | 3.5 | 209 | 318 | 325, 422 | 50 |
Mn, Mw, and PDI were determined by GPC in THF. Tg (glass-transition temperature) was measured from the second heating DSC curve and T10 and Tmax are the temperatures for 10% weight loss and maximum decomposition rates, respectively, according to the TGA data. Char yield (CY) at 600 °C was measured by TGA.
