Incorporating benzimidazole units into soluble polyimides for improving properties and application in water content detection in organic solvents

This study successfully synthesized co-PIs with better properties compared to their homo-PIs, which can function as a secondary sensor for sensing solvent’s water content through F − -induced deprotonation and subsequent re-protonation with water.

Abstract

This study successfully synthesized co-PIs with better properties compared to their homo-PIs, which can function as a secondary sensor for sensing solvent’s water content through F − -induced deprotonation and subsequent re-protonation with water.
