Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the preparation of aromatic diamine monomers and their polymers, and particularly to a class of diamine monomers and polyimides containing bis(trifluoromethyl), monomethyl side groups and m-phenyl structures. Background Technology

[0002] Thanks to the strong bond energy of imide and aromatic structures, polyimide films possess glass transition temperatures above 200℃ and thermal decomposition temperatures exceeding 500℃, tensile strengths of up to 100MPa, and excellent creep resistance. Their low dielectric loss and dielectric constant indicate their promising potential applications, leading to their widespread use in electronics, aerospace, and microelectronics. However, with increasingly stringent requirements for materials across various fields, particularly in the core applications of polyimide, the miniaturization and integration of electronic devices are presenting increasingly demanding challenges to these superior properties, placing higher demands on their overall performance. Common polyimides, such as Kapton NH films, possess excellent thermodynamic and mechanical properties thanks to their imide bonds. However, this also results in poor solubility of polyimides, reducing the plasticity of the polymer. Their dielectric constant is 3.4 at 1 kHz, and an excessively high dielectric constant can lead to communication delays and distortions. Furthermore, the electron transfer complex (CTC) structure also causes the film to have a dark brown color, further limiting its high-performance applications in microelectronic devices.

[0003] Experiments have shown that adding functional side groups to polyimides can effectively regulate polymer properties. Fluorinated bulky side groups and alkyl side groups are often popular choices, as they can significantly reduce the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the material. On the other hand, adding an isophenyl structure to the main chain is also an effective modification method. Compared with the usual p-phenyl structure, which promotes π=π stacking of molecular chains and the formation of hydrogen bond networks, adding a fixed angle to the main chain can disrupt the close packing, thereby improving the flexibility of the polymer. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention synthesizes a diamine monomer, 2,6-bis(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene, and synthesizes a novel polyimide polymer by polymerizing it with equimolar amounts of diphenyl ether tetracarboxylic dianhydride, hexafluoroisopropyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride, benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and bisphenol A tetracarboxylic dianhydride, respectively. The invention introduces bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and a m-phenylene structure into the polyimide.

[0005] This invention introduces methyl, trifluoromethyl, and meta structures through molecular structure design to increase the free volume of the polymer, improve the proportion of amorphous phase in the material, and reduce the close packing of molecular chains, in order to prepare a low-dielectric, highly transparent, flexible polyimide with good plasticity, while ensuring its appropriate thermodynamic and mechanical properties.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] An aromatic diamine monomer containing a bis(trifluoromethyl) group, a monomethyl side group, and a m-phenylene structure, wherein the aromatic diamine monomer 2,6-bis(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene has the following structural formula:

[0008] .

[0009] The method for preparing aromatic diamine monomers containing bis(trifluoromethyl), monomethyl side groups, and m-phenyl structures includes the following steps:

[0010] (1) 2,6-dihydroxytoluene, 2-chloro-5-nitrotrifluorotoluene and a basic catalyst were mixed in an organic solvent, stirred and heated to 140-150°C for 4-8 h under a nitrogen atmosphere. After the reaction was completed, the product was poured into deionized water to settle for 10-14 h, then the solid was filtered out and washed with anhydrous ethanol and dried. Recrystallization yielded the dinitro intermediate 2,6-bis(4-nitro-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene.

[0011] Preferably, the alkaline catalyst in step (1) is an inorganic or organic base, more preferably an inorganic base; such as sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide. The organic solvent is a high-boiling-point aprotic polar solvent, such as one or more of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

[0012] Preferably, the molar ratio of each raw material in step (1) is: 2,6-dihydroxytoluene: 2-chloro-5-nitrotrifluorotoluene: alkaline catalyst = 1:(2.0~2.2):(1.2~2.0).

[0013] (2) The dinitro intermediate 2,6-bis(4-nitro-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene, organic solvent and catalyst are placed in a reaction vessel, stirred and heated to 80~85°C under nitrogen protection, and the reducing agent is slowly added dropwise using a constant pressure dropping funnel. The reaction is carried out for 5~7 hours. After the reaction is completed, the product is allowed to stand and precipitate to obtain the product 2,6-bis(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene.

[0014] Preferably, the catalyst in step (2) is a noble metal catalyst, such as palladium on carbon; its amount is 3% to 10% of the mass of the dinitro intermediate.

[0015] The reducing agent is hydrazine hydrate. Its dosage is 4 to 10 times the molar amount of the dinitro intermediate.

[0016] The organic solvent is preferably an alcohol solvent, such as methanol, anhydrous ethanol, or ethylene glycol methyl ether.

[0017] This invention also provides a class of polyimides containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and an isophenyl structure, the structural formula of which is:

[0020] The preparation method of the above-mentioned polyimide polymer containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and isophenyl structures includes the following specific steps:

[0021] Four types of polyimides were prepared by a one-step method. Diamine monomer and dianhydride were added to a three-necked flask, heated to 105-115°C (preferably 110°C), and stirred until the solid was completely dissolved in the solvent. Then, a catalyst was added, and the mixture was heated to 170-180°C (preferably 174°C) under a nitrogen atmosphere and reacted for 3-8 hours until the reactants became viscous. The viscous reaction product was poured into anhydrous ethanol to precipitate, yielding a white solid product. Finally, after drying, the polyimide product was obtained.

[0022] The diamine monomer containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and m-phenyl structures is 2,6-bis(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)toluene, and the dianhydride is one of diphenyl ether tetracarboxylic dianhydride, hexafluoroisopropyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride, benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and bisphenol A dianhydride.

[0023] The organic solvent is m-cresol or N-methylpyrrolidone, and its amount is 7 to 15 times the total mass of the diamine and dianhydride monomers; the catalyst is isoquinoline, and its amount is 1% to 3% of the mass of the diamine.

[0024] The specific synthetic route for the aromatic diamine monomer and polyimide polymer containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and m-phenyl structures of the present invention is as follows:

[0027]

[0028] (2) Synthesis of polymers containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and isophenyl structures:

[0029]

[0030] The polyimide polymer film containing bis(trifluoromethyl) and monomethyl side groups and isophenyl structures of the present invention has important potential application value in the field of microelectronics.

[0031] The specific application method is as follows: add the polyimide polymer to an organic solvent to prepare a 5wt%~10wt% solution, filter it, coat it with a film, and dry it at 60~100℃ for 12~24 h to obtain a polyimide film material containing bis(trifluoromethyl), monomethyl side groups and isophenyl structures.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
