Two similar polyimide systems were synthesized and characterized. The only structural difference was a sulfide linkage in the anhydride‐derived portion of the first system vs. a sulfone linkage in the second. Their physical, mechanical, melt‐flow and thermal properties, and their resistance to some of the more common solvents were determined. The flow properties of these polyimides indicate a potential for melt processability.
