Notes:
A series of linear aromatic polyimide films that are based on a novel methylene-bridged dianhydride, 3,3′-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy) diphenylmethane dianhydride, have been synthesized and characterized. High molecular weight polyamic acids were prepared by combining this dianhydride with numerous aromatic diamines. The effects of thermal and chemical imidization of the polyamic acids are discussed as they relate to the dielectric constant, optical transparency, and solubility of the resulting polyimide films. The objective of this work was to obtain low dielectric, optically transparent, and soluble polyimides that can be easily processed as coatings or composite matrices for advanced aerospace and electronics applications.
