Description

Synthesis and thermal properties of new novolacs from hindered hydroquinone derivatives are described. Sulfuric acid-catalyzed condensation of 3, 5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (1) or 2, 5-di-tertbutylhydroquinone (2) with paraaldehyde (acetaldehyde) (3) or paraformaldehyde (formaldehyde) (4) in 2-ethoxyethanol afforded the corresponding linear novolac (5) - (8) in high yields. The resulting novolacs were well-soluble in the common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, and acetone. The structures of 5-8 were determined by 1H & 13C NMR and IR analyses. From TGA analyses, hydroquinoneacetaldehyde novolac (5 and 7) were less heat-stable than hydroquinone-formaldehyde novolac (6 or 8). These novolacs had easier processability than that of phenol or cresol novolac and will be expected for reactive polymers, cured resins and resist materials.
