Abstract

In order to obtain colorless and soluble polyimide films, a dianhydride containing 1,4:3,6-dianhydro-d-mannitol unit, 2,5-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)-1,4:3,6-dianhydromannitol dianhydride (IMDA) was synthesized. And a series of copolyimides were prepared from IMDA, 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic anhydride (PMDA), and 4,4′-oxydianiline by adjusting the mole fraction (between IMDA and PMDA) of IMDA from 0% to 100%. It was found that the solubility as well as the transmittance of the copolyimide films enhanced with the increased content of IMDA. Especially, when the content of IMDA was 60% or more, the copolyimides were readily soluble in common polar solvents and could afford flexible, tough, and colorless films with transparency up to 84% at 450 nm, which may be ascribed to the incorporation of the relatively twisted and flexible 1,4:3,6-dianhydro-d-mannitol units into the backbone of copolyimides. Additionally, the influence of IMDA on the thermal, mechanical, and morphological properties of copolyimides was investigated.
