Crystalline polyimides

Abstract

Aromatic crystalline polyimides are disclosed that are synthesized from polyamide-acid and when heated to 200 C to 300 C become cyclized to afford an opaque polymer. X-ray diffraction of the unoriented film exhibited 47 percent crystallinity. Differential scanning calorimetry reveals a melt at 425 C with no glass transition in these crystalline polyimides.
