Abstract
New photoactive copolysulfones carrying azo crown ether moieties in the main chain were prepared by polycondensation reaction of 4,4â²-bis(4-hydroxyphenylazo)dibenzo-18-crown-6, bisphenol A, and bis(4-chlorophenyl)sulfone. The azo polysulfones were characterized via FTIR and 1H NMR spectra, thermogravimetrical analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. The products showed good thermal stability, with 10% weight loss temperatures ranging from 366 to 426 °C, while the glass transition temperatures varied from 137 to 158 °C. A kinetic study of trans-cis-trans isomerization process based on the evolution of the electronic absorption spectra during UV irradiation was conducted.
