Abstract

A new diamine monomer 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (3-BAPOPP) was synthesized through two steps and its melting point was determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was then copolymerized with 4,4′-oxydianiline (44ODA) and 4,4′-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA) to obtain a series of aromatic polyimide(3-BAPOPP/44ODA/ODPA-PI) films. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) was used to characterize the structures of the monomer and the polyimide films. Water absorption, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, contact angle, DSC, and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the properties of 3-BAPOPP/44ODA/ODPA-P films. The results showed that the PI films had low water absorption in the range of 1.5%∼1.9%, low surface energy in the range of 43.3 ∼43.5 mJ/m2, glass transition temperature (Tg) in the range of 192.5°C∼226.1°C, and dielectric constant in the range of 2.79∼3.02 at 1 MHz. The films also exhibited good thermal properties and good optical properties, with the ultra violet cut-off wavelength being in the range of 346∼364 nm.
