Perfluorinated polyimides (and co-polyimide) compositions, particularly films are disclosed, comprising at least 50 mole percent of a polymeric repeat unit derived from contacting 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BDPA) and 2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl) benzidine (TFMB) monomers. The perfluorinated polyimide (and co-polyimide) films of the invention have an in-plane coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between -5 and +20 ppm/°C and a average light transmittance percent of from about 65.0 to about 99.0 (on a 75-micron thick film basis). The films of the present invention were converted to a polyimide using a chemical conversion method instead of typically employed thermal conversion step thus yielding these desirable properties. The films of the present invention can be an excellent substrate in an optical display device and can be used to replace rigid glass substrates. Finally, the polyimide films of the invention can also be used to manufacture flexible display devices (e.g., cellular phones, personal digital assistants, portable video games, laptops, and the like).
本发明公开了全氟聚酰亚胺(和共聚酰亚胺)组合物,特别是薄膜,其中包含至少 50 摩尔%的聚合物重复单元,该聚合物重复单元由 3,3',4,4'-联苯四羧酸二酐(BDPA)和 2,2'-双(三氟甲基)联苯胺(TFMB)单体接触而得。本发明的全氟聚酰亚胺(和共聚酰亚胺)薄膜的面内热膨胀系数(CTE)在-5 至 +20 ppm/°C 之间,平均透光率约为 65.0 至 99.0(以 75 微米厚的薄膜为基准)。本发明的薄膜是用化学转化法而不是通常采用的热转化步骤转化成聚酰亚胺的,因此具有这些理想的性能。本发明的薄膜可作为光学显示设备的优良基材,并可用于替代硬质玻璃基材。最后,本发明的聚酰亚胺薄膜还可用于制造柔性显示设备(如移动电话、个人数字助理、便携式电子游戏机、笔记本电脑等)。
