Amino ketone cross-linked polyphenylene oxide
First Claim
1. A cross-linked polyphenylene oxide polymer composition comprising the reaction product of a haloacylated phenylene oxide polymer and a primary monoamine selected from the group consisting of methylamine, ethylamine, a propylamine, a butylamine and aniline, wherein there is amino ketone cross-linkage between phenylene groups represented by the structural formula --COCHR'"'"'NRCHR'"'"'CO--, where R is methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl or phenyl and where R'"'"' is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl or propyl.

Abstract
Cross-linked polyphenylene oxide compositions comprise the reaction product of haloacylated polyphenylene oxide and a primary monoamine. The polyphenylene oxide chains are cross-linked by amino ketone bonding. Such cross-linked polymers are useful as membranes, for instance gas separation membranes.
