Abstract:

The glass transition temperature(Tg) of greater than 450 ℃ and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between 0 and 5×10-6 K-1 are required for the application of polyimide(PI) films as flexible organic light- emitting display(OLED) substrates. In order to improve the thermal properties of PI films, a series of novel PI films was prepared by the copolymerization of homemade 2,7-diaminoxanthone(2,7-DAX) with pyromellitic acid dianhydride(PMDA) and 2-(4-aminophenyl)-5-aminobenzoxazole(BOA). The aggregation structure, heat resistance, dimensional stability and mechanical properties of the films were investigated. The results show that the rigidity and linearity of PI molecular chain are improved by the structure of xanthone and benzoxazole, and the molecular chain is closely packed and oriented in the plane. The synthesized PI film has excellent comprehensive properties, with Tg>408 ℃, CTE between -5.0×10-6 and 8.1×10-6 K-1, tensile strength>140 MPa, tensile modulus>4.2 GPa, the elongation at break between 7.1% and 20%, and the thermogravimetric decomposition temperature(T5%) between 601 and 624 ℃. Among them, PI-50 and PI-60 films have ultra-high Tg(>450 ℃) and ultra-low CTE(2.1×10-6 K-1 and 1.6×10-6 K-1), respectively. The PI films prepared have potential application prospects as flexible OLED substrate materials.
