Silarylene-containing oligo(ether-amide)s based on bis(4-(4-amino phenoxy)phenyl)dimethylsilane. Effect of the dicarboxylic acid structure on some properties

Inherent viscosity and MALDI-TOF analyses suggest the formation of oligomeric chains with sequences A–B, (A–B)2 and (A–B)3. The properties and therefore the eventual applications of these materials are modulated by the flexibility and the aromatic content of the chains.
