Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polyimide technology, specifically relating to a lignin-based black polyimide film, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Polyimide, as a specialty engineering plastic, is a strategic high-end material. Due to its stable chemical and radiation resistance, excellent dimensional and thermal stability, and outstanding insulation and dielectric properties, polyimide exhibits superior overall performance in extreme operating environments, making it irreplaceable in many fields. This has led to its widespread application in consumer electronics, aerospace, mobile communication technology, electronic packaging, and flexible copper-clad laminates.

[0003] Black polyimide, a special variety of polyimide, not only possesses the excellent comprehensive properties inherent in polyimide itself, but also exhibits superior light-shielding performance. Some types can also combine one or more functions such as high insulation, electromagnetic shielding, heat dissipation, and low vacuum evaporation rate. Currently, it is widely used in semiconductor and integrated circuit packaging, optics and displays, consumer electronics and wearable devices, automotive electronics, aerospace, and other fields.

[0004] Most current black polyimides are prepared by physically blending inorganic materials (graphite, carbon black, metal oxides, etc.) or organic black dyes (bituminous coal, perylene black, aniline black, etc.) with polyamic acid to form blended black polyimides, or by preparing a black coating on the surface of polyimides using organic black dyes. For example, patent application CN116253880A discloses a method for preparing a black polyimide film containing phenoxyphosphazene, carbon black, and carbon nanotubes, which improves the electrical strength to 110–170 KV / mm compared to the comparative example. However, due to the addition of black filler, the electrical strength of the material is still not ideal. Patent application CN115521706A discloses a method for preparing a black polyimide film containing a color paste prepared from carbon black and a wetting and dispersing agent. The light transmittance of the film was reduced to ≤1%, but the tensile strength of the film material was only 105–112 MPa, and the elongation at break was only 4.5–7.2%. Patent application CN117165081A discloses a method for preparing black polyimide composite materials using a core-shell structure filler with an matting filler core and a carbon black light-shielding material shell. Its electrical strength was increased to 149–171 KV / mm compared to the comparative example of 137 KV / mm, but it was still significantly reduced compared to the excellent insulation properties of polyimide itself.

[0005] However, existing blended black polyimides have the following problems: inorganic black fillers are difficult to disperse evenly, and adding too much will reduce the mechanical properties of the polyimide material, while reducing electrical insulation properties, increasing dielectric constant and dielectric loss; while organic black dyes cannot maintain black properties during high-temperature processing, and organic black dyes are too expensive.

The solvent is then removed by drying at 105 °C, followed by thermal imide curing at 280 °C for 2 hours. After cooling, the black polyimide film material is peeled off from the glass substrate. A carbon black-containing polyimide film with a thickness of 40 µm ± 1 µm is obtained.

[0078] Comparative Example 6 (1) Under a nitrogen atmosphere and a set temperature of 35 °C, 327.95 g of N,N-dimethylacetamide was added to a 500 ml reaction apparatus as a solvent. Subsequently, 0.048 mol of p-phenylenediamine (33 mol%) and 0.097 mol of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (67 mol%) were added as diamine monomers, along with 20.27 g of completely dried alkali lignin with a particle size of 5 µm and a weight-average molecular weight of 2800 Da (accounting for 24.5% of the total mass of lignin and polyamic acid). The mixture was completely dissolved in about 45 minutes under mechanical stirring. Then, 0.061 mol of pyromellitic dianhydride (42 mol%) and 0.084 mol of 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (58 mol%) were added as dianhydride monomers for the reaction. The reaction was carried out for 20 hours under mechanical stirring at 700 rpm to ensure complete reaction, resulting in a polyamic acid solution-lignin composition with a certain viscosity.

[0079] (2) The polyamic acid composition from step (1) was coated onto a glass support substrate to a thickness of approximately 100 µm. The solvent was then removed by drying in an oven at 105 °C, followed by thermal imide curing at 280 °C for 2 hours. After cooling, the black polyimide film was peeled off the glass substrate. A black polyimide film with a thickness of 40 µm ± 1 µm was obtained.

[0080] Test methods Test Method 1. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the material are measured on a universal testing machine. The sample is cut into test strips of 10mm*70mm with a tensile gauge length of 20mm, and tested at 50mm / min.

[0081] Test Method 2. The breakdown strength of the material is measured using a breakdown field strength tester. After drying the sample, a breakdown test is performed using direct current with a voltage ramp rate of 0.5 kV / s.

[0082] Test method 3. Measure the cutoff wavelength of the material using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer.

[0083] Test method 4. Measure the L* value of the material using a colorimeter.

[0084] The test results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0085] Table 2 Test results of the examples and comparative examples

[0086] The test results in Table 2 show that the black polyimide film prepared by lignin blending exhibits both ideal blackness and excellent insulation properties. The addition of lignin did not affect the mechanical properties of the polyimide, which still exhibited a tensile strength greater than 230 MPa, demonstrating superior mechanical properties compared to the film material prepared by carbon black blending in Comparative Example 2. The breakdown strength in the examples was greater than 340 KV / mm, far exceeding the 82 KV / mm obtained by carbon black blending in Comparative Example 2. This indicates that the black polyimide film prepared by the method proposed in this invention has excellent insulation properties. The polyimide film prepared by Comparative Example 3 using lignin sulfonate had a high blackness value (L*), a too small cutoff wavelength, and both tensile strength and electrical breakdown strength were lower than those in the examples, failing to meet the requirements for black polyimide. Comparative Example 4 used a small amount of lignin as a dispersant to disperse talc filler; the resulting polyimide film also had a high blackness value (L*), a too small cutoff wavelength, and both tensile strength and electrical breakdown strength were lower than those in the examples, also failing to meet the requirements for black polyimide. Comparative Example 5 further increased the carbon black doping content, resulting in a film material with better black properties compared to Example 1. However, excessive carbon black was difficult to disperse uniformly and easily agglomerated, leading to a significant reduction in the material's mechanical properties and insulation strength. Comparative Example 6, by adding lignin during the polymerization stage of dianhydride and diamine, prepared a black polyimide film that exhibited comparable black properties to Example 3, but its electrical breakdown strength was still lower than that of Example 3, while its mechanical strength showed a significant decrease.
