Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of polyimide materials, and specifically relates to a polyimide and a preparation method thereof, an optically transparent film and a flexible electronic device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of polymers, polyimide (PI) has begun to attract attention. PI is a type of high molecular polymer containing cyclic imide groups in the molecular chain. It has excellent heat resistance and bendability, as well as high optical transmittance. The excellent properties of PI make it widely used in the manufacture of OLED flexible substrates.

[0003] Traditional polyimide materials usually have a high glass transition temperature, so their softening temperature is usually high. At this time, the processing of polyimide requires a higher reaction temperature (300℃~425℃). Processing thermoplastic polyimide at this temperature requires a large production cost and has many safety hazards. The most critical thing is that within this temperature, a slight cross-linking occurs in the polyimide molecular chain, so it is also called "pseudo-thermoplastic" polyimide. Therefore, polyimide with a higher glass transition temperature or a higher processing temperature will prematurely become brittle, harden, lose elasticity and other problems. Summary of the invention

[0053] At present, polyimide generally has a high glass transition temperature, which means that it is necessary to achieve the transition of polyimide from a glassy state to a highly elastic state at a higher temperature. The processing of polyimide generally requires preparation steps such as melt processing, and the preparation temperature at this time needs to be heated to above the glass transition temperature, that is, polyimide with a higher glass transition temperature also requires a higher processing temperature.

[0073] Furthermore, the diamine monomer includes , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , and One or more of .

[0074] In one example, the molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer is 1:(0.9~1.2). The molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer plays an important role in the structural change of the polyimide. The present application defines the molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer, which can ensure that the polyimide has a lower glass transition temperature; and the dianhydride monomer and the diamine monomer in the above molar ratio are conducive to ensuring their solubility in the solvent, and are suitable for preparing polyimide films by solution processing. It can be understood that the molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer can be selected from any value between 1:(0.9~1.2). Further, the molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer includes but is not limited to 1:0.9, 1:0.92, 1:0.94, 1:0.96, 1:0.98, 1:1, 1:1.2, 1:1.4, 1:1.6, 1:1.8 or 1:2.

[0075] In one example, the polyimide has a structure shown in formula (III): ;

[0076] Among them, Y is ; m is a positive integer ≥1.

[0077] The amino group (-NH 2 ) has strong nucleophilicity, while the anhydride group (-CO-O-CO-) in the dianhydride monomer has certain electrophilicity. Under low temperature conditions, the dianhydride monomer and the diamine monomer are added to the solvent, and the amino group of the diamine monomer will attack the anhydride group of the dianhydride monomer with nucleophilicity, resulting in a nucleophilic addition reaction. After one amino group reacts with the anhydride group, an amide bond (-CONH-) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) are formed, while the other anhydride group remains. The carboxyl group on the generated intermediate product will continue to react with the amino group of other diamine monomers, and the nucleophilic addition reaction and chain growth process will be repeated continuously, so that the molecular chain will continue to extend, and finally form the intermediate product polyamic acid. A dehydration reaction will occur between the carboxyl group and the amide bond on the polyamic acid molecular chain, and the hydroxyl group (-OH) in the carboxyl group and the hydrogen atom in the amide bond will combine to form a water molecule and remove, while forming an imide ring. As the dehydration reaction proceeds, the polyamic acid is gradually converted into polyimide. Therefore, it can be understood that the X appearing in the polyimide structure 1 , X 2 , A, L1 , L 2 and Ar are defined as in the above-mentioned dianhydride monomer and diamine monomer.

[0091] The polyimide of the present application includes a polyether bond or a polysulfide bond and an alkyl group or the like connected to the polyether bond or the polysulfide bond, which reduces the structural regularity, giving the polyimide more flexibility, allowing it to move at a lower temperature; in addition, the polyether bond or the polysulfide bond has a lower polarity, which can weaken the intermolecular forces such as van der Waals force and hydrogen bond, thereby effectively reducing the formation temperature and glass transition temperature of the polyimide. To complement the polyether bond or the polysulfide bond, the polyimide also contains a polyaromatic ring structure, whose higher bond energy and stable structure make the molecular chain less likely to deform, thereby giving the polyimide good mechanical properties.

[0093] S10, mixing the dianhydride monomer and the diamine monomer in a solvent to prepare a polyimide slurry;

[0094] S20, subjecting the polyimide slurry to a thermal imidization reaction to prepare the polyimide.

[0095] In one example, in step S10, in the step of mixing the dianhydride monomer and the diamine monomer in a solvent, the solvent includes N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP, )、m-cresol( )、N,N-dimethylacetamide( )、Dimethyl sulfoxide( ), γ-butyrolactone ( )、Cyclohexanone( ) and N,N-dimethylformamide ( )

[0096] Furthermore, the preparation steps of the polyimide slurry include:

[0097] a. performing a first mixing of the diamine monomer in a solvent to prepare an intermediate solution containing the diamine monomer;

[0098] b. Adding dianhydride monomer to the intermediate solution containing diamine monomer for second mixing to prepare polyimide slurry.

[0099] Specifically, in step a, the mass ratio of the diamine monomer to the solvent is 1:(10-21). Specifically, the mass ratio of the diamine monomer to the solvent includes but is not limited to 1:10, 1:11, 1:12, 1:13, 1:14, 1:15, 1:16, 1:16.5, 1:16.6, 1:16.7, 1:17, 1:17.5, 1:17.6, 1:18.2, 1:18.3, 1:19, 1:20.5, 1:20.6 or 1:21.

[0102] The first mixing and the second mixing are performed in sequence, and the mixing temperature and the time of the second mixing are limited. At this time, the amino group of the diamine monomer undergoes a nucleophilic addition reaction with the anhydride group of the dianhydride monomer to generate an amide (-CONH-) and a carboxyl group (-COOH); the generated carboxyl group will continue to react with the amino group of other diamine monomers, and the nucleophilic addition reaction and chain growth process will be continuously repeated, so that the molecular chain is continuously extended, and finally a polyimide slurry containing the intermediate product polyamic acid is formed.

The temperature for the third heat treatment includes but is not limited to 220°C, 222°C, 225°C, 227°C, 230°C, 232°C, 235°C, 238°C or 240°C.

[0105] Specifically, the first heating treatment and the second heating treatment are each independently performed for 10 minutes to 20 minutes, and the third heating treatment is performed for 25 minutes to 35 minutes.

[0106] The present application also provides a method for preparing a polyimide film, comprising the following steps:

[0107] The polyimide slurry is coated on a substrate, and a polymerization reaction is performed. After the solvent in the polyimide slurry is removed, the polyimide film is formed on the substrate.

[0108] Specifically, the material of the substrate includes but is not limited to ceramic, glass, silicon, metal, plastic, etc. For example, the ceramic may be alumina ceramic, and the metal may be stainless steel, aluminum, copper, etc. The plastic may be a polyimide film. Preferably, the substrate is glass, and further, the substrate is polished glass.
