Abstract

Thermooxidatively and hydrolytically stable perfluoroalkylene ether bibenzoxazole polymers containing hydrocarbon cure sites are synthesized by the polycondensation of a fluorocarbon bis(o-aminophenol) containing a hydrocarbon moiety and a perfluoroalkylene ether diimidate or dithioimidate ester. The polymers are readily curable to elastomers that are resistant to hydrolysis over a wide use-temperature range. Thus, the polymers are especially suitable for use in aerospace applications where extreme environments are encountered. In particular, the polymers are useful as seals, sealants, and the like.
