| Research Abstract |
Aromatic polyesters and poly(ether-ketone)s were successfully prepared by the polymerization of 2,5-furanedicarboxylic acid which was derived from biomass. They exhibited excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance comparable with conventional super-engineering plastics derived from the monomers synthesized from petroleum. They possess a great potential to replace the super-engineering plastics.
