Claims
- 1. Novel substituted polyarylene polymers having the formula ##STR21## wherein each R is independently a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 aliphatic or a C.sub.5 to C.sub.7 cycloaliphatic radical, an aryl radical having the formula ##STR22## wherein each R.sub.1 is independently a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 aliphatic radical and p is an integer of 0 to 4, each radical being free of a tertiary alpha-carbon atom; A is hydrogen, halogen, an aliphatic or an aryl radical; Y is a divalent oxygen or sulfur atom or a carbonate group; n is an integer of from about 75 to about 10,000; and
- wherein G is present in at least five percent of said polyarylene units and is selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfonyls having the formula ##STR23## where R.sub.2a is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 aliphatic radical and sulfonamides having the formula ##STR24## where R.sub.2 is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 aliphatic or aryl radical of the formula ##STR25## or a naphthyl radical where R.sub.1 and p are as described above.
- 2. Novel substituted polyarylene polymers having the formula ##STR26## wherein each R is independently a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 aliphatic or a C.sub.5 to C.sub.7 cycloaliphatic radical, an aryl radical having the formula ##STR27## wherein each R.sub.1 is independently a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 aliphatic radical and p is an integer of 0 to 4, each radical being free of tertiary alpha-carbon atom; A is hydrogen, halogen, an aliphatic or an aryl radical; Y is a divalent oxygen or sulfur atom or a carbonate group; n is an integer of from about 75 to about 10,000; and
- wherein G is present in at least five percent of said polyarylene units and is selected from the group consisting of phosphorus groups having the formula
- P (R.sub.5).sub.3 q
- where R.sub.5 is selected from the group consisting of R.sub.4 and O--R.sub.4 and mixtures thereof where R.sub.4 is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 aliphatic or an aryl radical of the formula ##STR28## where R.sub.1 and p are as defined in claim 1 and q is an integer of from 1 to 3.
