Thermal oxidation of PEPA-terminated polyimide

Abstract: The thermal oxidative stability of a 4-phenylethynyl phthalic anhydride (PEPA) endcapped polyimide (PI) was investigated. A surface reaction layer formed due to oxidization during thermal aging and grew in thickness with increasing aging time. Analysis of the surface layer revealed a partial loss of aromatic ring, ether linkage, and imide linkage in the aged polymer. The partial loss of the imide linkage and ether linkage in the surface layer was corroborated by the observed release of carbon monoxide and carb… Show more

“…A prior report on thermo-oxidative aging of 4-phenylethynyl phthalic anhydride (PEPA)–end–capped polyimide revealed asymmetric broadening of the tan ( δ ) peak at high aging temperature (316°C), indicating the growth of a thick oxidized layer with more compact packing and wider molecular-weight distribution. 13 This peak-broadening has not been reported for aging of PMR-15. However, similar peak-broadening and shouldering were observed for PETI-340M composites aged at 288°C (indicated by red arrow), although it was not observed after aging at 232°C (Figure 2(a)).…”

“…It is known that the bond dissociation energy of Ar–Ar (450–460 kJ/mol) is greater than that of Ar–CO–Ar (396 kJ/mol) and Ar–O–Ar (330 kJ/mol). As a result, the PIS-A10 displayed relatively higher thermal oxidative stability than the others [ 35 , 36 ].…”

“…Moreover, the curve fitting results of the Si 2p peaks for PIS-A10 and PIS-T10 after postcuring at 450 °C for 1 h gave the less Q siloxy units along with more D and T siloxy units as compared with that for PIS-O10 after postcuring at 450 °C. It is suspected that the dramatic increase in T g of PIS-O10 after postcuring at 450 °C correlated with the existence of ether groups, which promote the free radical oxidation crosslinking reaction of siloxane structure and thus further improve the T g of the resin [ 35 ].…”

“…In the presence of oxygen, the mechanisms of thermal polymer degradation become even more complex due to the formation of highly reactive peroxide macroradicals which enable a cascade of degradation reactions [148][149][150].…”
