Abstract
To provide polyimide (PI) with high heat resistance and ultra-low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for use in flexible display substrates, a novel diamine with bisbenzimidazole and bisamide groups, namely N,N'-(1H,1'H-[5,5'-bibenzo[d]imidazole]-2,2'-diyl)bis(4-aminobenzamide) (BZBA), was designed and successfully synthesized. Several poly(benzimidazole-amide-imide) (PBIAI) films were prepared by thermal imidization with 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA), 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA), 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylindene)-diphthalic anhydride (6FDA), respectively. Among them, BZBA-BPDA has a high glass transition temperatures ( Tg = 345 °C) while achieving an extremely low coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE = 1.9 ppm K−1), meeting the processing requirements of polymer flexible substrates in OLED devices. The effects of different dianhydrides on the performance of PBIAIs were compared, providing a meaningful reference for further adjusting the PI molecular structure to meet specific requirements for industrial polymer films.
