Abstract: The compounds are of the class of multi-functional benzoxazine compounds, useful in forming carbon-carbon composites by means of the pyrolysis of carbon fibers impregnated with such compounds.
Abstract: A class of fluorescent rare earth chelates and the ligands upon which they are based whose molecular structure incorporates a plurality of substituted arylpyridine diacid units attached to a central template structure is disclosed. These ligands function as efficient energy transfer groups in fluorescent tagging reagents and tracers.
Abstract: Disclosed are rigid fluorinated monomers 9-phenyl-9-perfluoroalkylxanthene ##STR1## . The monomers have utility in the preparation of advanced high-performance polymers, particularly polyimides.
