Hybrid complex polymers of boron and imidazole hydroxide

Аннотация

The possibility of forming supramolecular structures of a polymer complex consisting of products of polycondensation of boric acid and imidazole from aqueous solutions and melts of the components is shown. Depending on the ratio of the components, the heat resistance of the polymer complex lies within 60 and 480°C. The effect of sharp decrease in the heat resistance of the complex and the degree of polycondensation of boric acid upon a slight increase in the imidazole concentration above the stoichiometric ratio is revealed, which was explained by the “blocking” of hydroxyl groups by imidazole molecules and, correspondingly, by a significant decrease in their chemical activity. The energies of the intermolecular bonds in the complexes are calculated.
