Synthesis, characterization and magnetic properties of novel heat resistant polyimide nanocomposites derived from 14H-dibenzo [a,j] xanthene

Novel Polyimide/Copper-Nickel Ferrite Composites with Tunable Magnetic and Dielectric Properties

Heat-resistant magnetic polymer composites were prepared by incorporating cerium-doped copper-nickel ferrite particles, having the general formula Ni_1-xCu_xFe_1.92Ce_0.08O₄ (x: 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, 1.0), into a polyimide matrix. The effects of particle type and concentration on the thermal, magnetic, and electrical properties of the resulting composites were investigated. The samples were characterized by FTIR, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, vibrating sample magnetometer, and broadband dielectric spectroscopy. The composites exhibited high thermal stability, having initial decomposition temperatures between 495 and 509 °C. Saturation magnetization (M_s), magnetic remanence (M_r), and coercivity (H_c) were found in range of 2.37–10.90 emu g⁻¹, 0.45–2.84 emu g⁻¹, and 32–244 Oe, respectively. The study of dielectric properties revealed dielectric constant values of 3.0–4.3 and low dielectric losses of 0.016–0.197 at room temperature and a frequency of 1 Hz.

Synthesis and Characterization of Semicrystalline Polyimides Containing Bridged Linkages

A series of polyimides (PI) containing bridged linkages were prepared successfully through a three-step technique. The results indicated that the glass transition temperature (Tg) of polyimides was affected by flexibility of polymer chain and the intermolecular interactions. ODPA-TPER-based polyimide possesses the lowest Tg, which was 214°C. All polyimides had semicrystalline characteristics, and ODPA-TPER-based PI exhibited the lowest melting temperature (Tm) at 316°C. The polyimides had high weight loss temperatures, which indicated that bridged linkages can reduce the softening temperature, meanwhile keeping excellent thermal stability.

Synthesis and Cytotoxicity of N-Substituted Dibenzo[a,j]xanthene-3,11-dicarboxamide Derivatives

In order to study the structure-activity relationships of xanthene derivatives, four series of N-substituted 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthene-3,11-dicarboxamide derivatives were synthesized. The structures of all compounds were identified by ¹H-NMR, HR-MS and IR spectra, in which compounds 6a-h were further identified by ¹³C-NMR spectra. The in vitro antitumor activity of the synthesized compounds was tested by MTT assay. Most of them displayed strong inhibitory activity on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (SK-HEP-1, HepG2 and SMMC-7721 cells) and acute promyelocytic leukemia NB4 cells. Compounds 6c-6e exhibited significant inhibitory activity against NB4 cells with IC₅₀ values of 0.52 μM and 0.76 μM, respectively, much lower than 5.31 μM of the positive control As₂O₃.

In this work a new series of multifunctional nanocomposites were synthesized based on a soluble poly(ether-imide).

Development of one-step synthesized LDH reinforced multifunctional poly(amide–imide) matrix containing xanthene rings: study on thermal stability and flame retardancy

New exfoliated poly(amide–imide)/Zn–Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were synthesized by solution intercalation using synthesized organo-modified LDH (OLDH) as nanofiller obtained by one-step method.
