Mechanical, dielectric, and thermal attributes of polyimides stemmed out of 4, 4’ – Diaminodiphenyl ether

Several kinds of polyimide (PI) films stemmed out of 4, 4’ –diaminodiphenyl ether, as well as various structurally various aromatic dianhydride, were prepared. The films’ mechanical, dielectric, and dynamic mechanical attributes were put under investigation. According the findings, the PI films’ performance is significantly different as a result of their diverse structure. PI’s dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent of abides by the increasing order below: PMDA-PI>BTDA-PI>BPDA-PI. Moreover, the electric breakdown strength of BTDA-PI (478.90 kV/mm) presents a lot higher value compared to the one PMDA-PI (326.80 kV/mm) and BPDA-PI (357.07 kV/mm). In particular, BTDA-PI film possesses high electric breakdown strength about 478.90 kV/mm. In addition, PI’s glass transition temperature (Tg) are, respectively, 276 °C (BTDA-PI), and290 °C (BPDA-PI), as well as 302 °C (PMDA-PI). Therefore, in virtue of their various structures and performances, practical applications of PI films can exert significant role in the electronics and microelectronics industries.
