A series of quaternary copolymerized thermoplastic polyimides (PI) films with good thermal resistance has been synthesized via two-step method from bicomponent isomeric dianhydrides, 2,3′,3,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (α-BPDA) and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (s-BPDA), and bicomponent flexible diamines, 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) and 1,3-bis(4′-aminophenoxy)benzene (TPE-R). By adjusting the molar ratio of dianhydrides to diamines, its effects on the thermal stability, thermoplasticity and solubility of PI films were investigated in detail. The results showed that these quaternary copolymerized PI films were in possession of both thermoplasticity and excellent thermal stability. It is derived from the synergetic effect of isomeric dianhydrides and flexible diamines. It has also been found that there is one critical molar ratio between dianhydrides and diamines, that is, α-BPDA:s-BPDA:ODA:
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
