Zylon (IUPAC name: poly(p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole)) is a trademarked name for a range of thermoset liquid-crystalline polyoxazole. This synthetic polymer material was invented and developed by SRI International in the 1980s and manufactured by Toyobo. [2] In generic usage, the fiber is referred to as PBO. [3]
Poly(p-phenylene) (PPP) is made of repeating p-phenylene units, which act as the precursor to a conducting polymer of the rigid-rod polymer family. The synthesis of PPP has proven challenging, but has been accomplished through excess polycondensation with the Suzuki coupling method. [1] [2]
Poly(2,6-diphenylphenylene oxide) reacts with oxidising agents such as chlorine, ozone, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides forming acetophenone, benzaldehyde and phenol. Therefore, control of blanks is essential and storage time of samples on poly(2,6-diphenylphenylene oxide) is less than a month.
Poly(p-phenylene oxide) (PPO), poly(p-phenylene ether) (PPE), poly(oxy-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene), often referred to simply as polyphenylene oxide, is a high-temperature thermoplastic with the general formula (C 8 H 8 O) n. It is rarely used in its pure form due to difficulties in processing.
In organic chemistry, the phenylene group (−C 6 H 4 −) is based on a di-substituted benzene ring . For example, poly(p-phenylene) is a polymer built up from para-phenylene repeating units. [1] The phenylene group has three structural isomers, based on which hydrogens are substituted: para-phenylene, meta-phenylene, and ortho-phenylene.
Poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV, or polyphenylene vinylene) is a conducting polymer of the rigid-rod polymer family. PPV is the only polymer of this type that can be processed into a highly ordered crystalline thin film. PPV and its derivatives are electrically conducting upon doping.

Benzoxazole is an aromatic organic compound with a molecular formula C 7 H 5 NO, a benzene-fused oxazole ring structure, and an odor similar to pyridine. [1] [2] Although benzoxazole itself is of little practical value, many derivatives of benzoxazoles are commercially important.
