Rigid‐Rod Polymers: Synthesis, Processing, Simulation, Structure, and Properties
Abstract
Synthesis, structure, and properties of rigid‐rod polymers with special emphasis on poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) and poly(p‐phenylene benzobisthiazole) (PBZT) have been reviewed. Recent studies on chemical modifications and molecular simulations have also been given. After nearly 20 years of research and development, PBO fiber was commercialized in the late 1990s. However, due to processing difficulties, the concept of the so called molecular composites has not been successful. Development of the high compressive strength M5 and dihydroxy‐PBI fibers clearly suggest that there is potential for further developing properties of this class of materials. Opto‐electronic properties have also been reviewed. Synthesis of PBZT. magnified imageSynthesis of PBZT.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
