Abstract:
Solvent resistant, transparent films prepared from solutions of aromatic polyamides and multi-functional carboxylic acids in polar aprotic solvents are described herein. Solvent resistance is achieved by heating the films for a short time above 300° C. near the polyamide Tg. The films have CTEs less than 40 ppm/° C. and are optically clear displaying transmittance above 75% between 400 and 750 nm. The films are useful as substrates for flexible electronic devices.

Abstract:
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.

Abstract:
The components and methods disclosed herein are directed to positive type photosensitive resin compositions, which are comprised of an alkynyl containing polymer, a benzophenone type DNQ, and solvents. The alkynyl containing polymer is prepared by the condensation reaction of alkynyl containing dianhydrides and hydroxyl containing diamines, and alkynyl containing end cappers. The advantage of this formulation is that the resulting photosensitive resin composition is comprised of only a polymer, a benzophenone type DNQ PAC, and solvents that generates high resolution patterned films with good thermal and physical properties without using additional additives. This composition also enables film curing at relatively low temperatures without additional additives, simplifying the composition. After curing, the alkynyl units in the polymer chain and the chain ends give the cured film excellent solvent resistance and film retention due to intra and/or inter-molecular crosslinking.
Abstract:
Films with optical transmittance of >80% between 400 and 750 nm and with coefficient of thermal expansion less than 20 ppm/° C. are prepared from aromatic polyamides that are soluble in polar organic solvents yet have glass transition temperatures >300° C. The films are cross-linked in the solid state by heating at elevated temperatures for short periods of time in the presence of multifunctional epoxides. Surprisingly, the optical and thermal properties of the films do not change significantly during the curing process. The temperature required for the crosslinking process to take place can be reduced by the presence of a few free, pendant carboxyl groups along the polyamide backbones. The films are useful as flexible substrates for electronic displays and photovoltaic devices.
