Abstract
Rigid-rod monomers and polymers are provided for use in applications such as rapid prototyping, composites and adhesives. The monomers can be photocured through the end groups and then thermally post cured through the acetylene groups. The result is a highly crosslinked polymer having an effective glass transition temperature well above 200° C.
