Poly[6‐(2,6‐bis(1′‐methylbenzimidazolyl)pyridin‐4‐yloxy)hexyl acrylate] (PBIP) and its terbium complex (PBIP‐Tb 3+ ) were prepared and characterized by 1 H NMR and FT‐IR. The optical properties of PBIP‐Tb 3+ complex were characterized by UV–vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. Both polymer PBIP and PBIP‐Tb 3+ complex show good thermal stability. The magnetic property of PBIP‐Tb 3+ complex was measured as a function of temperature (5–300 K) at 30 kOe and as a function of an external field (−50 to 50 kOe) at 5 K. Magnetic hysteresis loop of PBIP‐Tb 3+ complex at 5 K shows typical “S” shape and PBIP‐Tb 3+ complex is soft ferromagnetic. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133 , 44249.
