Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] In order to solve the problem that the polyimide in the prior art cannot have both excellent masking ability and ultraviolet sensitivity, the embodiments of the present invention provide a black polyimide with high ultraviolet sensitivity and a preparation method and application thereof.

[0027] The method for preparing a highly UV-sensitive black polyimide provided by an embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps: under inert gas protection, adding a diamine monomer having structural unit B and a photosensitive diamine monomer having structural unit C to a polar organic solvent, stirring and dissolving them, and then adding an acid anhydride having structural unit A and continuing to stir. The reaction system is then placed in a water bath at -5 to 25°C and stirred in the dark for 12 to 20 hours to obtain a photosensitive black polyamide acid solution. The obtained highly UV-sensitive black polyamide acid solution is applied to a substrate by spin coating, heated to remove the solvent, and exposed to a UV light source. The substrate is then placed in an inert gas atmosphere and maintained at 30 to 50°C for 30 minutes, 50 to 150°C for 30 minutes, 150 to 250°C for 30 minutes, and 250 to 400°C for 40 to 60 minutes, performing thermal imidization in stages to produce a highly UV-sensitive black polyimide.

[0028] Wherein, in terms of the amount of substance ratio, the acid anhydride having the structural unit A: the diamine monomer having the structural unit B: the photosensitive diamine monomer having the structural unit C = (10-100): (1-20): (2-50).

[0029] The total mass of the acid anhydride having the structural unit A, the diamine monomer having the structural unit B, and the photosensitive diamine monomer having the structural unit C accounts for 5% to 10% of the total mass of the reaction solution.

[0030] The polar organic solvent is selected from any one of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone and toluene.

[0031] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] This embodiment provides an experiment for preparing black polyimide with high UV sensitivity.

[0034] 205.30 g of the diamine monomer 4'',4'''''-(4,5-diphenylcyclopenta-3,5-diene-1,3-diyl)bis([1,1':4',1''-terphenyl]-4-amine) and 110.01 g of the photosensitive diamine monomer were mixed and added to an apparatus equipped with a stirrer. The reaction system was placed in an ice-water bath at 0°C. 771.7 g of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) was then added and stirred until the diamine monomer was completely dissolved. 351.91 g of 5,5'-carbonylbis(isobenzofuran-1,3-dione) was added to the reaction system in three separate additions, each with a 20-min interval. The reaction was allowed to proceed under an inert atmosphere in the dark for 12 h to obtain a highly UV-sensitive black polyamic acid solution A. After filtering and defoaming, the photosensitive black polyamic acid solution A was coated onto a substrate by spin coating. The coated substrate was placed on a heating platform at 80°C for 3 h to evaporate the solvent, thereby obtaining a black polyimide film A. The photosensitive black polyimide film A was exposed to a UV light source with a wavelength of 350 nm for 10 s. Figure 1 The results shown by Figure 1 It can be seen that after exposure through the UV mask, the pattern can be clearly observed on the film.

[0035] Then, the exposed photosensitive black polyimide film A was placed in an inert gas atmosphere and kept at 50°C for 30 minutes, 100°C for 30 minutes, 250°C for 30 minutes, and 400°C for 60 minutes, and thermal imidization was performed in stages to obtain highly UV-sensitive black polyimide A. The obtained highly UV-sensitive black polyimide A was subjected to infrared testing, and the following results were obtained: Figure 2 The results shown.

The reaction system was placed in an ice-water bath at 5°C. Then, 1110.50 g of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was added and stirred until the diamine monomer was completely dissolved. 757.70 g of 5,5'-[(propane-2,2-diylbis[4,1-phenylene])bis(oxy)]bis(isobenzofuran-1,3-dione) was added to the reaction system in three separate additions, each with a 5-minute interval. The reaction was in an inert atmosphere, shielded from light, for 15 hours to obtain a highly UV-sensitive black polyamic acid solution B. After filtering and defoaming, the photosensitive black polyamic acid solution B was coated onto a substrate by spin coating. The coated substrate was heated on a 50°C heating table for 2 hours to evaporate the solvent, resulting in a black polyimide film B. The photosensitive black polyimide film B was exposed to a 400 nm UV light source for 70 seconds. The film was then thermally imidized in stages under an inert gas atmosphere at 50°C for 30 minutes, 150°C for 30 minutes, 250°C for 30 minutes, and 400°C for 60 minutes, yielding a highly UV-sensitive black polyimide film B.

[0043] 17.3 g of the diamine monomer N1-(4-aminophenyl)-N1-phenylbenzene-1,4-diamine and 111.5 g of the photosensitive diamine monomer were mixed and added to a mechanically stirred apparatus. The reaction system was placed in a 20°C water bath. 1756.5 g of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was then added to the apparatus and stirred until the diamine monomer was completely dissolved. Next, 108 g of 2,3,6,7-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride was added to the reaction solution in one portion. Stirring was continued under inert gas for 24 hours to produce a photosensitive black polyamide acid solution. The photosensitive black polyamide acid solution was filtered and defoamed at room temperature in the dark, then coated onto a substrate by doctor blade coating. The substrate was then placed in a forced air heating apparatus and the solvent evaporated at 60°C for 2 hours to produce a photosensitive black polyimide film. The black polyimide film was placed in an inert gas atmosphere, maintained at 80° C. for 60 minutes, 150° C. for 60 minutes, and 280° C. for 120 minutes, and heated in stages for imidization to obtain a self-supporting ordinary black polyimide.

[0044] The synthetic route of this embodiment is as follows Figure 5 shown.

[0045] The high UV-sensitive black polyimide A and ordinary black polyimide prepared in Example 1 were subjected to UV-visible light testing, and the results were as follows: Figure 6 The results shown by Figure 6 It can be seen that the absorbance of the highly UV-sensitive black polyimide A in the UV region is more than 40% higher than that of the ordinary photosensitive black polyimide.
