The present invention is directed toward transparent films prepared from soluble aromatic copolyamides with glass transition temperatures greater than 300 C. The copolyamides, which contain pendant carboxylic groups are solution cast into films using N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), or other polar solvents. The films are thermally cured at temperatures near the copolymer glass transition temperature. After curing, the polymer films display transmittances >80% from 400 to 750 nm, have coefficients of thermal expansion of less than 20 ppm, and are solvent resistant. The films are useful as flexible substrates for microelectronic devices.
本发明的目的是用
玻璃化转变温度高于 300 C 的可溶性芳香族共聚多酰胺制备透明薄膜。这种共聚多酰胺含有悬垂羧基,使用 N,N-二甲基乙酰胺(
DMAc)、N-甲基-
2-吡咯烷酮(
NMP)或其它极性溶剂将其溶液浇铸成薄膜。薄膜在共聚物
玻璃转化温度附近进行热固化。固化后,聚合物薄膜在 400 纳米到 750 纳米之间的透光率大于 80%,热膨胀系数小于 20 ppm,并且具有耐溶剂性。这些薄膜可用作微电子设备的柔性基底。
