A series of well‐defined poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK)/sodium sulfonated poly(aryl ether ketone) (S‐PAEK) block copolymers of high molecular weights was prepared by direct nucleophilic polymerization of hydroquinone with sodium 5,5′‐carbonylbis(2‐fluorobenzene sulfonate) ( 1 ) and PEKK oligomer ( 2 ). Varying the ratio of 1 to 2 used in polymerization can be used to control the degree of polymer sulfonation, which correspondingly affects the polymer solubility in solvents. Increasing content of 1 in the copolymers, slightly decreases their thermal stability which is nevertheless thermally stable up to 400 °C. Two T g values, or one broad T g , were observed in the DSC measurements of the block copolymers, indicating the existence of phase separation, which was further proved by phase‐separated morphologies as shown in atomic force microscopy images. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry
