The thermal performance of aromatic polyesters (poly(DPA–IPC), poly(MDP–IPC) and poly(EDP–IPC)) prepared from isophthaloyl chloride (IPC) with Diphenolic acid (cas 126-00-1) (DPA) and its esters were studied with DSC and TG, and the decomposition mechanism of poly(DPA–IPC) were investigated using FTIR and integrated TG/FTIR analyses. As compared with ordinary aromatic polyesters, poly(DPA–IPC) has lower glass transition temperature (159 °C) and much lower thermal stability. It starts to decompose at about 210 °C and is characterized by two-stage thermal decomposition behavior, with active energies of decomposition of 206 kJ/mol and 389 kJ/mol, respectively. The analyses of the decomposition process and products indicate that the pendent carboxyl groups in poly(DPA–IPC) are responsible for its low thermal stability. Accordingly, a decomposition mechanism for the first stage is proposed. With this knowledge in mind, we capped the carboxyl groups in DPA with methyl and ethyl groups to prepare poly(MDP–IPC) and poly(EDP–IPC) from methyl diphenolate and ethyl dipenolate. As expected, these two polymers exhibit obviously improved thermal stability, with onset decomposition temperature of about 300 °C.
