Abstract

Moisture sensitivity of polyimines is systematically studied by incorporating various diamine moieties into the polymer networks. Significant variations in moisture responsiveness and property changes were observed. Hydrophilic polyimines can be re-healed at ambient conditions, whereas more hydrophobic polyimines require heat to be healed.
