Abstract
AbstractA diamine and polyamic acid containing phenolic hydroxyl group was synthesized. A series of polyimide/silica hybrid films with strong interacton between organic and inorgamic components was prepared via sol–gel reaction. The morphology of the hybrid films was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The thermal stability and mechanical properties of the films were detected. The results indicated that the introduction of phenolic hydroxyl groups remarkably attributed to the improvement of tensile strength. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
