Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an aromatic polyester and a method for producing the same. [Background technology]

[0002] To improve the heat resistance, mechanical properties, and electrical properties of organic materials, hybrid materials (nanocomposites) that mix inorganic particles such as silica gel and titanium oxide with organic polymers have been widely studied. However, because the properties of organic and inorganic materials are fundamentally very different, problems with the above hybrid materials include the inability to incorporate so many inorganic particles into the organic material, the difficulty of dispersing the inorganic particles neatly within the organic material, and the aggregation of the inorganic particles within the organic material over time.

[0003] To solve these problems, the surfaces of inorganic particles have been modified with organic low-molecular-weight compounds or organic polymers. The two main methods used for modifying with organic polymers are: (1) introducing an initiation site onto the inorganic surface and then carrying out living polymerization from there; and (2) introducing functional groups (e.g., -Si(OR)3, -PO3H, -COOH, -SH, etc.) capable of bonding with inorganic substances into the terminals of the living polymers and then reacting them with the surface of the inorganic particles. For example, the latter method has been shown to improve heat resistance and transparency when silica particles surface-modified by introducing -Si(OR)3 groups into the terminals of linear and hyperbranched aromatic polyamides are added to aromatic polyimides, compared to when conventional unmodified silica is added (Patent Documents 1 to 3).

[0004] Thus, modifying silica particles with organic polymers is important for developing hybrid materials. For example, Patent Document 4 discloses a magnet wire insulation system in which a hybrid coating layer in which silica particles are introduced into polyimide and a polyester coating layer are produced to ensure insulation. However, in terms of the production process, multi-layer coating as in Patent Document 4 leads to reduced productivity. On the other hand, Patent Document 5 discloses a polyesterimide into which an ester structure, which generally has a low dielectric constant and low water absorption, has been introduced. However, the polyesterimide disclosed in Patent Document 5 has a limited structure and is therefore not very versatile.

[0005] Hybrid materials made from polyester-incorporated silica particles and high-performance plastics such as polyimide are expected to be useful in the development of new high-performance films, so it is important to develop a simple method for easily introducing ester structures into polyimide.

These solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The water content is not particularly limited, but a dehydrated solvent is preferred to prevent side reactions.

[0035] [3] Surface-modified metal oxide fine particles The polyester (4) obtained by the above production method can be used as a surface treatment agent for metal oxides by utilizing its terminal trialkoxysilyl group, and as a result, metal oxide microparticles whose surfaces are modified with the polyester can be obtained. The metal oxide particles are not particularly limited, and may be appropriately selected from various conventionally known metal oxides such as SiO2, SnO2, TiO2, WO3, ZnO, ZrO2, In2O3, Sb2O5, etc., depending on the intended use, etc. From the viewpoints of versatility and transparency, SiO2 is preferred.

[0060] [4] Preparation of hybrid film of polyamic acid and polyester-modified silica sol (i) [Synthesis Example 6] Synthesis of polyamic acid (P1) The polymerization solvent was a mixture of 320 g of N-methylpyrrolidone and 80 g of N,N-dimethylacetamide in a mass ratio of 8:2. Then, 249 g of this mixed solvent was added to a recovery flask, and 24.6 g of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (DDE) was added, followed by 26.3 g of pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA). Polymerization was carried out at 50°C to obtain polyamic acid (P1). The physical properties of P1 were a solids content of 17% by mass, a viscosity of 13,640 mPa·s at 25°C measured using an E-type viscometer, and a weight-average molecular weight of 63,000.

[0061] [Reference Example 1] Hybrid film production A 20 mL sample bottle containing 3.0 g of polyamic acid (P1) and 1.7 g of polyester-modified silica sol (i) was stirred at 1500 rpm for 10 minutes using a vacuum stirring and degassing mixer (V-mini300, manufactured by EME Co., Ltd.) to obtain a transparent yellow varnish with a component ratio of polyamic acid (P1):polyester-modified silica sol (i) = 1:1. The resulting varnish was bar-coated onto a 10 x 10 cm alkali-free glass substrate (Corning, product name: Eagle XG) with a gap of 250 μm. The substrate was then baked in nitrogen on a hot plate at 100°C for 30 minutes, then baked at 230°C for another 30 minutes, and immersed in pure water to obtain the desired coating film. The resulting coating film exhibited no haze and was self-supporting.
