Abstract

An aromatic ionomeric copolymer having arylether and arylsulfone linkages has been prepared by condensation of both: PA0 (a) The alkali metal bisphenate salts of 9,9-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl-fluoren-4-carboxylic acid, optionally with up to 99 mol percent of another dihydric phenol based on the combined bisphenates in the mixture; and PA0 (b) dihalodiphenylsulfones where the halogen is selected from chlorine or fluorine. The copolymers are useful inter alia as ion exchange materials and permselective membranes. A process of preparing and purifying the carboxylic acid containing bisphenol monomer is described.
