Anisotropic Linear and Volumetric Thermal‐Expansion Behaviors of Self‐Standing Polyimide Films Analyzed by Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA) and Optical Interferometry

Abstract: The relationships between the molecular structure, polymer chain orientation, β‐transition temperature, and the coefficients of in‐plane and out‐of‐plane linear thermal expansions (CTE, α), as well as the coefficients of volumetric thermal expansion (CVE, β), are extensively examined for ten types of self‐standing aromatic polyimide (PI) films via thermomechanical analysis, near‐infrared optical interferometry, and dynamic mechanical analysis. The out‐of‐plane CTEs (α⊥) of PI films having rigid‐rod structures … Show more

“…Temperature variation over the thickness of the PI films was precisely measured using optical interferometry during the heating process [5,6]. The transmission spectra in the near-IR region were used, owing to the absence of absorptions.…”

“…However, the DC of approximately 42%-45% should be sufficiently high to fix and immobilize the PI main chains in the solid films. The suppression of local molecular motion, as represented by increased β-and γ-relaxation temperatures, is important to reduce the CVEs of polymers [5,6]. …”
