Semi‐crystalline and amorphous aromatic polymers have become well established as high‐performance engineering polymers and composite matrices. Such polymers with functional groups introduced, may be used to toughen, and modify the processing properties of, a range of thermosetting resins, in addition to being copolymerisable, crosslinkable and/or chain‐extendable. This paper describes structure/property relationships which have been established for functionalised polyaromatics and systems which utilise them.
