Poly(arylene ether nitrile)s with sulfonic and carboxylic groups (SCPEN) were synthesized to investigate their electrical properties. This new series of copolymers were prepared by copolymerization of phenolphthalein, potassium hydroquinonesulfonate, and 2,6-difluorobenzonitrile, in different mole ratios. Their thermal, mechanical and dielectric
