It is produced by chemical imidization by ring-closing dehydration.
  • Polyimide is an insoluble and infusible super heat resistant resin, and has excellent properties such as heat oxidation resistance, heat resistance, radiation resistance, low temperature resistance, and chemical resistance. For this reason, polyimide is used in a wide range of fields including electronic materials such as insulating coating agents, insulating films, etc .; semiconductor protective films; TFT-LCD electrode protective films. Recently, it has been studied to adopt a polyimide film as a flexible substrate utilizing its transparency, lightness, and flexibility in place of a glass substrate conventionally used as a substrate for display. As for the polyimide film as the flexible substrate, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 have been reported.
