The main aim of this research is to synthesize a new class of multifunctional poly(ester amides) (PEAs), characterize them and to study their structure-property relationship. These PEAs were synthesized by direct polycondensation of 2, 5-pyridine dicarboxylic acid with various diols and three other varying diamines using diphenylphosphoryl chloride (DPPC) as the condensation agent in pyridine solution. In order to study the effect of the thermal stability and optical property, monomers of different molecular structures were used. The present investigation also focuses on the study of anti-bacterial, anti-cancer activities and wound healing capacity of the synthesized PEAs. Moreover nanofibers formed by using electrospinning technique with blends of PEAs in PVC matrix were studied for assessing the applicability of PEAs as nanofibers. This chapter highlights literature on the role of various synthetic PEAs which result from the several combinations of monomers in order to design materials with desirable properties for several applications in various fields.
