Description: A multi-layer wrinkled structure of MWCNTs/polyimide aerogel-based paper was prepared using a simple method. This paper exhibits excellent responsiveness, thermal stability, and mechanical properties, and can detect the movement of mechanical devices through generated responsiveness. [Display omitted] • Multilayer wrinkled structure MWCNTs/polyimide aerogel-based paper (CPs) was prepared via a single freeze-drying-thermal extrusion-thermal imidization method. • CPs can stably generate electrical responses in high-temperature environments up to 300 °C. • CPs exhibit good tensile strength (CP-1: 117.1 MPa at 25 °C) and stability (1000 cycles). • The response generated by CPs can be utilized to monitor changes in the mechanical device. In recent years, as the electronics industry has driven the development of human civilization, flexible responsive materials have become highly favored in sensing applications. However, most flexible materials are not stable under high-temperature conditions, so only a few flexible responsive materials are suitable for high-temperature and high-strength applications. In this paper, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were added as conductive material into poly(amic acid) ammonium salt (PAAS) solutions to prepare MWCNTs/polyimide aerogel-based papers (CPs) by a simple method. The introduction of MWCNTs into the ordered multilayer folded structure of the CPs provided a conductive pathway and improved their thermal stability. When the multilayer folded structure was deformed, the MWCNTs between the layers contacted each other, increasing the number of electron transport channels and providing a larger contact area for the conductive network. When the deformation was removed, the MWCNTs in the interlayer contact zone rapidly separated, providing stable and excellent responsiveness at high temperatures (CP-2: ΔR/R 0 value of up to −0.45 at 300 °C) and favorable stability after 1000 cycles (CP-2: RV retention of 92.4 % at 25 °C and 80.5 % at 300 °C). Therefore, the prepared CPs have great application prospects in the fields of high-temperature mechanical device monitoring, sensing, and alarms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a resin with high adhesion, easy curing, good flexibility, and high temperature resistance was prepared from polyimide fiber paper. First, in order to improve the toughness and curability of impregnating resin, epoxy resin was modified by addition of vinyl silicone resin. Subsequently, ternary resin with high temperature stability was obtained by polyimide resin addition. Among the investigated conditions, the optimal additive amount of vinyl silicone resin and polyimide resin was 30% and 5%, respectively. The prepared ternary resin has better toughness, crosslinking degree, high temperature stability (5% mass loss at 339.2 °C) and no obvious glass transition at high temperature. Finally, the polyimide fiber paper-based composite material was impregnated with modified epoxy resin and ternary resin, respectively. The results shows that the paper-based composite material impregnated with modified epoxy resin has a better fiber bonding degree, a smooth surface, and contact angle could reach up to 148.71°. Meanwhile, the paper-based composite material impregnated with ternary resin has good high temperature resistance, and the tensile index of the paper-based composite material could reach up to 35.1 N·m/g at 200 °C.

An anisotropic aerogel hot-extrusion strategy is designed to convert polyimide aerogels into aerogel-based paper. The multilayer interconnected aerogel-based paper exhibits excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties, and the mechanical properties remain great at high temperatures. This aerogel-based paper has huge application potential in the aerospace field. [Display omitted] • Multi-layer interconnected aerogel based paper was successfully prepared by anisotropic aerogel hot extrusion strategy. • Aerogel-based papers exhibit excellent thermal stability and stable mechanical properties (PI-1: 216.28 MPa at 25 °C). • The tensile strength of PI-1 was 3 times that of commercial polyimide paper and 24 times that of aramid paper at 400 °C. • Aerogel-based paper maintain stable mechanical property after 5000 cycles. The continuous improvement of papermaking technology has attracted widespread attention. However, the prevention of high-temperature decomposition and a subsequent decline in mechanical strength is still a significant challenge with current papermaking technology. Herein, a newly developed multilayer interconnected polyimide aerogel-based paper was successfully prepared via an anisotropic aerogel hot-extrusion strategy. Precursor solutions of highly rigid benzimidazole units containing intermolecular hydrogen bonds and linear rod-like benzimide units were first prepared. Anisotropic precursor polyimide (PAAS) aerogels with a thickness of 3 mm were then manufactured by unidirectional freeze-drying. Then, aerogel-based papers with a thickness of 40 μm and microstructure multilayer interconnected properties were obtained by a hot extrusion strategy and a thermal imidization process. This polyimide structural paper exhibited excellent thermal and mechanical properties. Through the design of micro and macro structures, the tensile strength of the aerogel-based paper was much higher than that of commercial paper at both room temperature and 400 ℃. This aerogel-based paper also exhibited high-temperature cycle stability, high flexibility, and good stretchable bending properties. The successful preparation of this aerogel-based paper demonstrates the feasibility of the hot extrusion strategy. This work provides a new papermaking technology method and broadens the application field of paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• An hydrophobic paper-based sorptive phase is prepared by combining dip-coating and thermal curing. • The synthesis is based on an in-situ imidizatation of poly(amic) acid thanks to a thermal treatment. • The new sorptive phase allows the isolation of methadone from oral fluid samples. • LOQ of 9 µg/L, precision better than 14.6%, and accuracy in the range of 87–108% were obtained. Paper-based sorptive phases (PSPs) are functional planar materials with a demonstrated potential in analytical sample preparation. This article describes the synthesis of a polyimide coated paper by an in-situ imidization at a high temperature. Polyimides (PI) are synthesized in two subsequent steps where a hydrophilic polymer, in this case, poly(amic acid) (PAA), is formed as an intermediate product. PAA is finally transformed into hydrophobic PI by thermal curing at 180 °C. The synthesis of PI-paper takes advantage of this two-step procedure. In the first stage, a segment of filter paper is immersed into an aqueous PAA solution. After the solvent evaporation, the paper is heated at 180 °C for 1 h inducing the formation of the hydrophobic PI over the cellulose fibers. Infrared spectroscopy has been used to characterize the synthesized materials by defining a coverage factor F. The hydrophobicity of the materials has been studied using an aqueous methylene blue solution as a marker. To fully demonstrate the usefulness of the material in the sample preparation field, the extraction of methadone from oral fluid (OF) samples has been considered as a model analytical problem. The main variables affecting the synthesis (PAA concentration on the precursor solution and number of dips) and the extraction (elution and extraction times) have been fully evaluated. Working under the optimum conditions, a limit of quantification of 9 µg/L, intraday and interday precision better than 14.6%, and accuracy in the range of 87–108% were obtained.

- Abstract
This paper introduces a novel, cost-effective solution designed to achieve large absorption bandwidth within the THz spectrum employing a miniaturized, single-layer metamaterial structure. The designed structure features a single circular ring composed of an ohmic resistive sheet with notably higher sheet resistance than traditional metallic resonators. This distinctive design is implemented on a lossy dielectric polyimide substrate with a backing of metallic gold. Our developed absorbing structure demonstrates the capability to achieve a substantial absorption bandwidth ranging from 3.78 to 4.25 THz, maintaining a consistent absorption rate of over 90%. Moreover, we conducted an analysis to assess its absorption performance under various sheet resistance values within the top layer. Additionally, we characterized its angular stability and polarization insensitivity through oblique incident and polarization angle analysis. Finally, an RLC circuital and interference theory approach is adopted to justify its simulated results. The proposed absorber shows potential for a broad spectrum of applications, encompassing communication, imaging, and diverse integrated circuits operating within the THz band. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide-band gap semiconductor that exceeds other semiconducting materials (except diamond) in electrical, mechanical, chemical, and radiation stability. In this paper, we report a novel approach to fabrication of SiC nano films on a Si substrate, which is based on the endotaxial growth of a SiC crystalline phase in a graphite-like carbon (GLC) matrix. GLC films were formed by carbonization of rigid rod polyimide (PI) Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films on a Si substrate at 1000 °C in vacuum. After rapid thermal annealing of GLC films at 1100 °C and 1200 °C, new types of heterostructures SiC(10 nm)/GLC(20 nm)/Si(111) and SiC(20 nm)/GLC(15 nm)/SiC(10 nm)/Si(111) were obtained. The SiC top layer was formed due to the Si-containing gas phase present above the surface of GLC film. An advantage of the proposed method of endotaxy is that the SiC crystalline phase is formed within the volume of the GLC film of a thickness predetermined by using PI LB films with different numbers of monolayers for carbonization. This approach allows growing SiC layers close to the 2D state, which is promising for optoelectronics, photovoltaics, spintronics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
This paper investigates the properties of 100-nm ZnO thin films prepared by radio frequency (RF) sputtering technique on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyimide (PI) plastic substrates using X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns to show the proper formation of hexagonal ZnO (002) structure, with ZnO on PET plastic substrate recording higher peak and FWHM compared to ZnO on PI plastic substrate. AFM reveals smooth surface morphologies on both substrates with a root-mean-square (RMS) roughness of below 10 nm. Optical transmittance measures values exceeding 80% in the visible and infrared (IR) regions on each substrate. ZnO on PET records 3.33 eV, and ZnO on PI measures 3.35 eV of optical band gap (E
g ) from the Tauc plot. The photoelectrochemical cell (PEC) parameter measurement study shows that ZnO thin films on PET and PI plastic substrates have efficiencies (η = 0.93) and (η = 0.88), respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

With the policy tilt and increased investment in research and development in the world, new energy vehicle technology continues to progress and the drive motor power density continues to improve, which puts forward higher requirements for the comprehensive performance of the core insulating material enameled wire enamel for drive motors. Polyimide (PI) has excellent electrical insulation properties, and heat resistance is often used to drive the motor winding insulation. To further improve the corona resistance and insulating properties of PI wire enamel varnish, in this paper, firstly, fluorene groups with a rigid conjugated structure were introduced into the molecular chain of the PI film by molecular structure modulation, and then uniformly dispersed alumina nanoclusters (AOCs) were introduced into the PI matrix by using an in situ growth process to inhibit the migration of high-energy electrons. The quantum size effect of the alumina nanoclusters was exploited to synergistically enhance the suppression and scattering of energetic moving electrons by PI-based composite films. The results show that the breakdown field strength of the PI-based composite film (MPI/1.0 vol% AOC) reaches 672.2 kV/mm, and the corona resistance life reaches 7.9 min, which are, respectively, 1.55 and 2.19 times higher than those of the initial PI film. A PI-based composite film with excellent insulating and corona resistance properties was obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nonwoven fabrics with appropriate hydrophilicity and potent antimicrobial properties hold important promise for hygiene applications. However, existing materials with certain limitations and complex manufacturing steps, along with the unavoidable use of chemicals in the process, are limited to a certain extent in terms of the balance between comfort and antimicrobial properties. In this paper, a polyimide (PI) fiber was reported to be used for the preparation of PI composite nonwoven fabrics (5-P), which can effectively enhance the surface hydrodynamic and antimicrobial properties of the nonwoven by a one-step plasma treatment on one side. After treatment, the one-sided water contact angle (WCA) changed from 121.5° to 68.5°, and the permeation volume from 0.7 to 2.1 g, with a relative increase of 181.9%. Meanwhile, the reverse osmosis amount was only 0.5 g, achieving rapid permeation while keeping a low reverse osmosis amount. The antimicrobial experiment showed that plasma-treated 5-P exhibited 64.3% and 91.6% inhibitory properties against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively. Notably, the production process of antimicrobial 5-P was fast and efficient without the addition of any chemicals. This method has great potential for the industrial preparation of antimicrobial comfort materials on a large scale, which is competitive in the medical, sanitary materials, and personal care fields.

Charge injection and conduction are fundamental phenomena that occur in dielectric materials when subjected to both low and high electric fields. This paper delves into the exploration of various conduction mechanisms, including space-charge-limited current (SCLC), Schottky charge injection, Poole–Frenkel, and hopping charge conduction, to elucidate the prevailing conduction mechanism in single and multilayer polyimide (PI)/SiO
2 nanocomposite films across a range of temperatures. At elevated electric field strengths, the conduction behavior transitions from ohmic to exhibiting a non-linear current–voltage dependence. The investigation highlights that PI nanocomposite films display distinct conduction behaviors contingent on both the applied electric field and temperature conditions. The insights derived from this study provide valuable empirical groundwork and explanations for conducting current measurements in PI-based insulation systems, particularly in applications such as motor insulation for electric vehicles.

This paper introduces a batch fabrication method to manufacture Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) platforms for 3D integration of sensors spatially-distributed on a 2D plane. In the heart of the concept is a foldable MEMS structure with polymer hinges which is used to support and guide the assembly of the discrete planar sensors by means of folding them into a 3D shape, like origami, providing controlled distribution of sensors in space. Flexible hinges carrying the electrical interconnects are a critical structural element of the platform and material selection study for those is the main focus of this paper. We analyzed different materials for flexible hinges fabrication, including photo-definable polyimide and parylene-C. Three approaches for sensor integration are presented: 1) co-fabrication; 2) sensor drop-in; and 3) transfer bonding. The prototypes of structures with different flexible hinge materials were fabricated and evaluated based on their mechanical flexibility, chemical compatibility, and material outgassing. Parylene-C exhibited similar or better performances compared to polyimide, demonstrating in each of the experiments a higher degree of thermal flexibility up to 350 °C, a superior chemical resistance against hydrofluoric acid, and 2.9 times lower outgassing.

The paper considers how a film of bismuth ferrite BiFeO
3 (BFO) is formed on a polymeric flexible polyimide substrate at low temperature ALD (250 °C). Two samples of BFO/Polyimide with different thicknesses (42 nm, 77 nm) were studied. As the thickness increases, a crystalline BFO phase with magnetic and electrical properties inherent to a multiferroic is observed. An increase in the film thickness promotes clustering. The competition between the magnetic and electrical subsystems creates an anomalous behavior of the magnetization at a temperature of 200 K. This property is probably related to the multiferroic/polymer interface. This paper explores the prerequisites for the low-temperature growth of BFO films on organic materials as promising structural components for flexible and quantum electronics.

Electrical corrosion resistance (ECR) glass fibers have drawn the attention of the research community owing to their outstanding properties and applicability. Thus, studying its reinforcing influence on the polyimide (PI) matrix remains an important research topic. In this paper, samples of the ECR powder-reinforced PI matrix composites were produced using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) method. The influence of the ECR at different weight concentrations on the crystallinity and microstructure as well as on the mechanical and dielectric properties of the ECR/PI matrix composites was examined using XRD, SEM, nanoindentation tests, and LCR meter. The ECR powder particles were uniformly dispersed into the PI matrix using 3D-turbula mixer, as revealed by SEM images. The mechanical properties of the PI matrix were noticed to be improved by ECR addition. However, in comparison with the pure PI, the ECR/PI matrix composite reinforced with 20 wt% ECR-glass depicted improved hardness by 19.8%, stiffness by 53.8%, and elastic modulus by 64.4 wt%. Furthermore, the ECR/PI matrix composite loaded with 20 wt% ECR showed low dielectric constant and dielectric loss compared to the pure PI sample. In addition, its electrical conductivity was also reduced nearly by 37.3% on exposure to 10 kHz. Finally, the findings suggest the cost-effective means of developing PI composites and their potential for mechanical load-bearing and insulation applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: As a high-performance engineering plastic, polyimide (PI) is widely used in the aerospace, electronics and automotive industries. This paper aims to review the latest progress in the tribological properties of PI-based composites, especially the effects of nanofiller selection, composite structure design and material modification on the tribological and mechanical properties of PI-matrix composites. Design/methodology/approach: The preparation technology of PI and its composites is introduced and the effects of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon fibers (CFs), graphene and its derivatives on the mechanical and tribological properties of PI-based composites are discussed. The effects of different nanofillers on tensile strength, tensile modulus, coefficient of friction and wear rate of PI-based composites are compared. Findings: CNTs can serve as the strengthening and lubricating phase of PI, whereas CFs can significantly enhance the mechanical properties of the matrix. Two-dimensional graphene and its derivatives have a high modulus of elasticity and self-lubricating properties, making them ideal nanofillers to improve the lubrication performance of PI. In addition, copolymerization can improve the fracture toughness and impact resistance of PI, thereby enhancing its mechanical properties. Originality/value: The mechanical and tribological properties of PI matrix composites vary depending on the nanofiller. Compared with nanofibers and nanoparticles, layered reinforcements can better improve the friction properties of PI composites. The synergistic effect of different composite fillers will become an important research system in the field of tribology in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The membrane–Fresnel diffractive lens (M-FDL) has great potential in the field of high-resolution and lightweight imaging in orbit. However, the M-FDL with high-optical quality and high-thermal stability cannot be fabricated to a standard by the existing processing methods. In this paper, we propose a method for fabricating an M-FDL composed of three steps: the improved repeated spin-coating of the polyimide (PI) membrane, the secondary mucosal method of silica-framed membrane mirror, and the high-precision fabrication of a multi-level microstructure on a flexible, ultrathin membrane substrate. The results show that the root mean square (RMS) of the wave-front error for M-FDL obtained by the above method is 1/28λ (F# = 8.7 at 632.8 nm) with an 80 mm clear aperture, the average diffraction efficiency is more than 70%, the silica-framed membrane mirror possesses approximately 40 times the overall thermal stability of the traditional metal-framed mirror, and the weight is less than 40 g. The measurement results indicate that the M-FDL has high-optical quality and high-thermal stability and can satisfy the imaging requirements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Careful design and material selection are the most beneficial strategies to ensure successful implantation and mitigate the failure of a neural probe in the long term. In order to realize a fully flexible implantable system, the probe should be easily manipulated by neuroscientists, with the potential to bend up to 90°. This paper investigates the impact of material choice, probe geometry, and crucially, implantation angle on implantation success through finite-element method simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics followed by cleanroom microfabrication. The designs introduced in this paper were fabricated using two polyimides: (i) PI-2545 as a release layer and (ii) photodefinable HD-4110 as the probe substrate. Four different designs were microfabricated, and the implantation tests were compared between an agarose brain phantom and lamb brain samples. The probes were scanned in a 7 T PharmaScan MRI coil to investigate potential artefacts. From the simulation, a triangular base and 50 µm polymer thickness were identified as the optimum design, which produced a probe 57.7 µm thick when fabricated. The probes exhibit excellent flexibility, exemplified in three-point bending tests performed with a DAGE 4000Plus. Successful implantation is possible for a range of angles between 30° and 90°. This article is part of the theme issue 'Advanced neurotechnologies: translating innovation for health and well-being'. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses peculiarities in the formation and adherence of a tribofilm on the wear track surface of antifriction PI- and PEI-based composites, as well as a transfer film (TF) on a steel counterface. It is shown that during hot pressing, PTFE nanoparticles melted and coalesced into micron-sized porous inclusions. In the PEI matrix, their dimensions were much larger (up to 30 µm) compared to those in the PI matrix (up to 6 µm). The phenomenon eliminated their role as effective uniformly distributed nanofillers, and the content of 5 wt.% was not always sufficient for the formation of a tribofilm or a significant decrease in the WR values. At the loaded content, the role of MoS
2 and graphite (Gr) microparticles was similar, although filling with MoS2 microparticles more successfully solved the problem of adhering to a PTFE-containing tribofilm in the point tribological contact. This differed under the linear tribological contact. The higher roughness of the steel counterpart, as well as the larger area of its sliding surface with the same PTFE content in the three-component PI- and PEI-based composites, did not allow for a strong adherence of either the stable PTFE-containing tribofilm on the wear track surface or the TF on the steel counterpart. For the PEI-based composites, the inability to shield the steel counterpart from the more reactive polymer matrix, especially under the conditions of PTFE deficiency, was accompanied by multiple increases in the WR values, which were several times greater than that of neat PEI.

Arc explosion accidents in live working seriously threaten the safety of power workers. At present, the mainstream arc protective clothing material is aramid and blends of aramid. However, aramid will produce toxic gas under high temperature combustion, which is harmful to the health of operators. Therefore, it is a special challenge to study fabrics that are friendly to the human body and have a highly protective performance to protect electrical workers. Polyimide is nontoxic and has excellent high temperature resistance, flame retardation, and mechanical properties. In this paper, polyimide was proposed to be used as an arc protective clothing material. In order to explore the feasibility of polyimide in the field of arc protection, molecular dynamics simulation was used to compare the heat resistance of polyimide and aramid in terms of bond order and glass transition temperature. Referring to ASTM F1959 and IEC 61482-1-1, an arc test apparatus was built to test the protective properties of materials. The protection failure mechanism was analyzed by comparing the safety protective performance of polyimide and aramid fabric under the arc. It was found that polyimide has better arc thermal protective performance and break open threshold. The simulation and test results show that polyimide can be used as a material for arc protective clothing to improve protective performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Due to the high demand for optoelectronics for use in new materials and processes, as well as the search for their modeling properties, the expansion of the functionality of modified materials using nanotechnology methods is relevant and timely. In the current paper, a specific nanotechnology approach is shown to increase the refractive and photoconductive parameters of the organic conjugated materials. The sensitization process, along with laser treatment, are presented in order to improve the basic physical–chemical properties of laser, solar energy, and general photonics materials. Effective nanoparticles, such as fullerenes, shungites, reduced graphene oxides, carbon nanotubes, etc., are used in order to obtain the bathochromic shift, increase the laser-induced change in the refractive index, and amplify the charge carrier mobility of the model matrix organics sensitized with these nanoparticles. The four-wave mixing technique is applied to test the main refractive characteristics of the studied materials. Volt–current measurements are used to estimate the increased charge carrier mobility. The areas of application for the modified nanostructured plastic matrixes are discussed and extended, while also taking into account the surface relief. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we used two monomers, 3,3',4,4'-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) and m,m'-diaminobenzophenone (m, m'-DABP), to produce polyamide acid and then converted it to polyimide (PI). The effects of phosphoric acid (H
3 PO4 ) molarity (1, 2, and 3 M) on the structural, thermal, mechanical, and electrical characteristics of the polyimides/polyaniline (PI/PANI) nanocomposites were studied. Two sharp reflection peaks were developed by the addition of PANI to PI. When 3 M H3 PO4 is added, the crystalline sharp peak loses some of its intensity. The complex formation of PI/PANI-H3 PO4 was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies. The surface morphologies of the H3 PO4 complex with nanocomposites were investigated by using a scanning electron microscope. From differential scanning calorimetry studies, the glass transition temperatures of nanocomposites decrease dramatically with an increase in H3 PO4 . Microhardness, flexural strength, and young modulus all dropped as acid molarity increased, although elongation at break increased as H3 PO4 molarity increased. After the addition of H3 PO4 , a drop in the dielectric constant and an increase in ionic conductivity were observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

The structure, mechanical, and tribological properties of polyimide (PI) and polyetherimide (PEI) based composites have been studied in the paper. The PEI macromolecular chain is more flexible and contains active oxygen atoms. To impart antifriction properties by forming a transfer film (TF) on the counterface/tribofilm on a sliding surface, the polymers were filled with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles. The tribological tests were carried out by the ball-on-disk and block-on-ring schemes under dry sliding friction on metal and ceramic counterfaces. As shown, at point tribological contact, the possibility of shielding the rubbed materials by PTFE film provided the wear rate (WR) and the coefficient of friction (CoF) μ at approximately the same low level regardless of a polymer matrix and a counterface material. At a linear tribological contact, the WR of the PI/PTFE was 2–3 times lower (in contrast to PEI/PTFE) that was caused by a more uniform distribution of solid-lubricant particles in a bulk composite. The revealed structure pattern, in friction against a ceramic counterface, suppressed the formation of wear products at the running-in stage, providing the minimum wear rate WR ~ 0.2·10
–6 mm3 / N·m at low value μ ~ 0.1. The tribochemical interaction of the steel counterface with the polymer matrix prevented achieving the low value μ > 0.18 for PI/PTFE and this, due to impossibility to adhere a tribofilm, did not allow attaining the wear intensity less than WR < 2·10–6 mm3 /N·m. In case of PI/PTFE, the wear rate was higher than 3·10–6 mm3 /N·m. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Polyimides (PI) are a class of dielectric polymer used in a wide range of electronics and electrical engineering applications from low-voltage microelectronics to high voltage isolation. They are well appreciated because of their excellent thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties, each of which need to be optimized uniquely depending on the end application. For example, for high-voltage applications, the final polymer breakdown field and dielectric properties must be optimized, both of which are dependent on the curing process and the final physico-chemical properties of PI. The majority of studies to date have focused on a limited set of properties of the polymer and have analyzed the effect of curing from a physicochemical-, mechanical- or electrical-centric viewpoint. This paper seeks to overcome this, unifying all of these characterizations in the same study to accurately describe the universal effect of the cure temperature on the properties of PI and at an industrial processing scale. This paper reports the widest-ranging study of its kind on the effect that cure temperature has on the physico-chemical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of polyimide, specifically poly (pyromellitic dianhydride-co-4, 4′-oxydianiline) (PMDA/ODA). The optimization of the cure temperature is accurately studied not only regarding the degree of imidization (DOI), but also considering the entire physical properties. Particularly, the analysis elucidates the key role of the charge–transfer complex (CTC) on these properties. The results show that while the thermal and mechanical properties improve with both DOI and CTC formation, the electrical properties, particularly at high field conditions, show an antagonistic behavior enhancing with increasing DOI while degrading at higher temperatures as the CTC formation increases. The electrical characterization at low field presents an enhancement of the final PI properties likely due to the DOI. On the contrary, at high electric field, the conductivity results show an improvement at an intermediate temperature emphasizing an ideal compromise between a high DOI and PI chain packing when the thermal imidization process is performed over this equilibrium. This balance enables maximum performance to be obtained for the PI film with optimized electrical properties and, overall, optimal thermal and mechanical properties are achieved.

High thermal conductivity insulating materials with excellent comprehensive properties can be obtained by doping boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) into polyimide (PI). To study the microscopic mechanism of composite material decomposition in an actual working environment and the inhibitory effect of BNNS doping on the decomposition process, molecular dynamics simulations were carried out at high temperatures, in intense electric fields, and with various reactive species in plasma based on the reactive force field (ReaxFF). The results showed that the decomposition was mainly caused by hydrogen capture and adsorption, which broke the benzene ring and C-N bond on the PI chains and led to serious damage to the PI structure. The BNNS filling was shown to inhibit the decomposition of the PI matrix at high temperatures and in intense electric fields. Moreover, the BNNS filling also inhibited the material decomposition caused by ·OH and ·NO. The erosive effect of the positive corona on the PI composites was more obvious than that of the negative corona. In this paper, the microscopic dynamic reaction paths of material pyrolysis in various environments were revealed at the atomic level, and it was concluded that BNNS doping could effectively inhibit the decomposition of PI in various environments.

In this paper, stannous oxide (SnO) was synthesized by hydrothermal method, and then the obtained SnO was introduced into polyimide matrix by in-situ polymerization method to prepare SnO/PT composite films. The contents of SnO have significant influence on the dielectric constant, dielectric loss, tensile strength and breakdown strength of the film. When the contents of SnO was 1 Owt%, the dielectric constant of the SnO/PT composite film was as high as 456, the dielectric loss was only 0.034, the tensile strength was 65 MPa, and the breakdown strength was 146.9 MV/m, respectively. The introduction of SnO into PT could greatly improve the dielectric properties of the composite PT films, so that it has a good application prospect in energy storage, aerospace, insulation and other fields.

Polyimide (PI) has excellent resistance to high or low temperatures due to its unique molecular structure, and is widely used in advanced electronics and power systems in extreme environments. In recent years, a small amount of studies have been published to modulate the dynamic behavior of PI such as self‐healable, recyclable, and degradable abilities by adjusting the structure of molecular chains and the composition of monomers. However, the conceptual design, formation conditions, and application prospects of dynamic PI are still unclear. In this paper, the new concepts and systems of dynamic PI are introduced from the perspective of the design of molecular structure, the development of regulating performance area, and the application of extreme insulation, based on recent work and other representative work. Specifically, this work appeals to researchers involved in PI synthesis, smart, dielectric, energy storage, and extreme insulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent studies have shown that introducing fluorinated groups into polyimide (PI) molecules can effectively reduce the dielectric constant (Dk) and dielectric loss (Df) of PIs. In this paper, 2,2′-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy) phenyl]-1,1′,1′,1′,3,3′,3′-hexafluoropropane (HFBAPP), 2,2′-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,4′-diaminobenzene (TFMB), diaminobenzene ether (ODA), 1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic anhydride (PMDA), 3,3′,4,4′-diphenyltetracarboxylic anhydride (s-BPDA) and 3,3′,4,4′-diphenylketontetracarboxylic anhydride (BTDA) were selected for mixed polymerization to find the relationship between the structure of PIs and dielectric properties. Firstly, different structures of fluorinated PIs were determined, and were put into simulation calculation to learn how structure factors such as fluorine content, the position of fluorine atom and the molecular structure of diamine monomer affect the dielectric properties. Secondly, experiments were carried out to characterize the properties of PI films. The observed change trends of performance were found to be consistent with the simulation results, and the possible basis of the interpretation of other performance was made from the molecular structure. Finally, the formulas with the best comprehensive performance were obtained respectively. Among them, the best dielectric properties were 14.3%TFMB/85.7%ODA//PMDA with dielectric constant of 2.12 and dielectric loss of 0.00698. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The recent expansion of the application environment of power electronics to high-radiation environments will cause the deterioration of insulation materials used in power electronics due to charging caused by cosmic ray irradiation. The charging phenomena should induce malfunctions in power electronics. Therefore, it is important to understand the insulation characteristics of insulation materials irradiated with protons, electrons, etc., to improve the reliability of power electronics. With respect to the above, there are few reports on the RIC (radiation-induced conductivity) of insulation materials irradiated with proton beams. In this paper, we experimentally evaluated the RIC of PI (polyimide) films irradiated with proton beams under various irradiation conditions. We also studied a calculation method to estimate the measured RIC of the PI. As a result, we clarified that the total conductivity of the PI increased under non-penetrating irradiation conditions and saturated under penetrating irradiation conditions. The reason for this is that the higher the irradiation energy, the deeper the maximum proton penetration depth under non-penetrating irradiation conditions. On the other hand, the conductivity characteristics did not change under penetrating conditions because the penetration depth was the same as the sample thickness. We also developed a calculation method to estimate the conductivity of the entire PI irradiated with proton beams. The estimated data calculated by the above method were analytically fitted with the measured data for most irradiation energy conditions. It is suggested that the above calculation method can estimate the conductivity of the entire PI irradiated with proton beams, regardless of penetrating or non-penetrating irradiation, based on the relationship between the RIC and dose rate of the PI irradiated under penetrating conditions. In the future, we will incorporate the results of this study into a computational model of space charge accumulation inside insulation materials to verify the influence of the RIC caused by proton irradiation on space charge accumulation.

In this paper, the effect of field strength on the corona-resistant lifespan of a composite film and the effect of doping on the dielectric properties of the composite film were studied. The method for predicting corona-resistant lifespan under working electric field strength is discussed. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the morphology and the structure of the composite film near the breakdown point after corona formation. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was used to characterize the imidiated film, and a conductivity current test was used to calculate the electrical aging threshold of the film. The results showed that the introduction of nano-SiO
2 particles could greatly improve the corona-resistant lifespan of the material. At 155 °C, when the applied external electric field strength was extrapolated to 20 kV/mm, the corona-resistant lifespan of the PI/nano-SiO2 three-layer composite film with 10 wt% nano-particle doping was 7472.61 h.

With the growing demands for transferring large amounts of data between components in a package, it is required for advanced packaging technologies to form smaller vertical vias in the insulators. Plasma etching is one of the most widely used micro-vias formation processes. This paper has developed a fabrication process for 5–10 µm residue-free micro-vias with 70° tapered angle in polyimide film based on O
2 /CHF3 inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The etch rate would monotonically increase with the ICP power, RF power, and gas flow rate. As for the gas ratio, there is an optimum range of CHF3 ratio, which could obtain the highest etch rate. The results have clearly shown that the enhancement of ion bombardment and prolongation of etching time would be beneficial to grass-like residue removal. In addition, during the etching of partially cured polyimide, the lateral etch rate would significantly increase in the region near the metal hard mask. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

In this paper, two calculation methods, quantum mechanics and molecular dynamics, are used to simulate the polyimides with 12 different molecular structure models. First, a variety of structural parameters that may be related to the dielectric constant are screened out, including free volume fraction, solubility parameters, the most negative atomic net charge, etc. Then, a stepwise regression analysis model is constructed using the parameters and dielectric constant, preliminary identification of property parameters with significant correlation with dielectric constant, and in-depth analysis of the rationality, structure–activity relationship, correlation, and other aspects of the multiple linear regression model. The results indicate that the p-value is less than p = 0.000 < 0.05, and the design of the model has important practical value; There is an inherent relationship between the five structural parameters and the dielectric constant—solubility parameters are positively correlated with end distance/free volume and dielectric constant, while the net charge of the most negative atom, free volume fraction, length of side groups are negatively correlated with dielectric constant. In addition, increasing the free volume of polyimide is more effective than changing the polarity to reduce the dielectric constant of polyimide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Context: Polyimide (PI) and aramid, as functional polymer materials, have significant application prospects in special fields such as fire prevention and arc resistance. Blends of materials can not only improve the physical and chemical properties of a single material, but also save costs, so in order to improve the performance of polyimide, it is of great practical importance to study the properties of PI and aramid blends. Molecular dynamics simulation results showed that the two materials are compatible. The solubility parameters of PI tend to stabilize when the polymerization degree exceeded 10; aramid-1313 and aramid-1414 tend to stabilize at polymerization degrees of 10 and 15 or more, respectively. On this basis, the binding energy, diffusion coefficient, and mechanical properties of PI/aramid-1313 and PI/aramid-1414 blends with different mass ratios were analyzed. It was found that with the continuous increase of aramid content, the binding energy of the blends continue to improve, limiting the gas molecules diffusion ability. The mechanical properties of the materials also continue to improve. The simulation results provided in this paper can provide theoretical guidance for experiments on PI blends and shorten the research time and cost. Methods: To investigate the properties of PI and aramid blends, the PI/aramid composite system models were constructed using the Amorphous Cell module in Materials Studio software. Subsequently, molecular dynamics simulations of the PI/aramid composite system were performed using the Forcite module, while the interactions between atoms and molecules were described using the COMPASS II force field.

[Display omitted] • A scalable and automated method to fabricate electrochemical sensors. • CO 2 laser source generates carbon conductive tracks onto Kapton tapes. • Sensors can be made with different geometries and sizes. • Disposable, versatile, and miniaturized devices for field analyses. • Portable microfluidic platforms are created by integrating paper with the sensors. The laser scribing technique produced disposable electrochemical devices with Kapton adhesive tape as a polyimide substrate. The approach consisted of carbonizing the polyimide substrate with a CO 2 laser source, generating the 3-electrode electrochemical system based on carbon conductive tracks. The materials were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electrochemical techniques. The laser processing parameters were submitted to the optimization process, demonstrating a strong impact on the electrochemical properties of the sensors. The sensors were initially fabricated in a chip format, providing satisfactory electrochemical responses compared to commercial screen-printed electrodes. In addition, they showed reproductivity, repeatability, and storage stability. Once characterized, the sensors were combined with paper devices to show the versatility of the electrochemical system. Paper was chosen because of its ubiquity and ability to generate flow without external pumps, resulting in portable analytical platforms. This combination can be advantageous for point-of-need applications. The analytical performance of the devices was evaluated for voltammetric determination of 3-nitrotyrosine, uric acid, and dopamine, demonstrating attractive features for analytical applications.

The advancement of the microelectronics industry necessitates the use of interlayer insulation materials with low dielectric constants and high mechanical properties. In this paper, a new type of copolymerized fluorinated polyimide (PI) is synthesized, and mixed with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) functionalized mesoporous silica (MCM‐41@POSS). The PI/MCM‐41@POSS composites exhibit good hydrophobicity. With the addition of 3 wt% MCM‐41@POSS, the PI composite attained an ultralow dielectric constant (k = 1.88) and low dielectric loss (0.01) at 1 MHz, which is attributed to the mesoporous structure of MCM‐41 and the restriction of polarization in the bonded region. The decorated POSS effectively prevents the penetration of PI molecular chains into the mesopores of MCM‐41. In addition, the PI composites containing 3 wt% of MCM‐41@POSS obtain the highest maximum stress of 104.03 MPa with an elongation at break of 13.73%. The hydrophobic PI composites with ultralow‐k are expected to be good candidates as interlayer materials in microelectronics devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• This paper aims to break through the bottleneck problem that the right-angle can'tbe perfectly machined in the existing photolithography process because of the light diffraction. The tangent treatment of U-shaped corners is carried out in this paper, thus fundamentally reducing the requirement for photolithography process accuracy from the beginning of design. • The equivalent dielectric parameter of substrate can be determined by comparing the experimental data of QWP transmission characteristics with the simulation data obtained by scanning the dielectric parameters under the same design. The proposed equivalent dielectric parameter of the substrate can provide the correct dielectric parameter input for accurate simulation of subsequent designs. • This paper gives a new empirical formula for our multilayer U-shaped metamaterial to help understand the effects of unit cell size, corner tangent size, and equivalent dielectric parameter of substrate on QWP transmission characteristics in the simulation. To overcome the bottleneck problem that the right-angle of metamaterial metal unit cell can't be perfectly machined in the existing photolithography process, the tangent treatment of U-shaped corners is carried out in this paper. Using two layers of U-shaped metamaterial gold unit cell with corner design sandwiched with three polyimide layers, a flexible terahertz quarter-wave plate (QWP) with polarization conversion efficiency of 0.8 and operating bandwidth of 0.2 THz is obtained. The equivalent dielectric parameter of substrate is proposed to provide the correct dielectric parameter input of polyimide for the precise simulation. The influences of the equivalent dielectric parameter, the corner tangent length and the geometric parameters of the metamaterial metal unit cell on the QWP performance are analyzed. To better understand the effects of these parameters on the QWP performance, an empirical formula for multilayer U-shaped metamaterial is given in this paper. This work has good application potential in terahertz wireless communications, terahertz imaging, and terahertz medical diagnostic systems and other fields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Polyimide (PI) was first discovered to exhibit excellent tribological properties in alkaline environments. PI is widely used because of its low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent mechanical properties, and resistance to high and low temperatures. The high manufacturing cost of PI makes its waste recycling a hot topic. The most common way of recycling is to hydrolyze PI in strong alkaline environments (C(OH−)>2 mol/L). Therefore, the intuition is that the friction performance of PI decline in highly corrosive environments. However, this paper found a counter-intuitive phenomenon. PI exhibits excellent tribological properties in alkaline environments. This paper studied the behavior of ball-on-disk contact between ceramic ball and PI disk tribopair in an alkaline environment. Results show a very low coefficient of friction (COF, 0.013) and wear rate (1.4 × 10−6 mm3/NM) in sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution with pH = 13 under the average Hertzian contact pressure of 60 MPa. The COF and wear rate decreased by 80% and 63.4%, respectively, compared with those in solutions with pH = 7. The worn surface was characterized to explore the tribological mechanism. NaOH reacts with PI to form a polymer containing sodium ions during the friction process. The polymer adheres to the friction surface and improves the friction performance of PI. The chemical reaction breaks the C–N–C chemical bond of PI, thereby reducing the molecular rigidity and improving the adhesion of the PI surface. This paper provides a new modification method for improving the tribological properties of PI. [Display omitted] • The tribological properties of PI in the alkaline environment with different pH values were studied. • Polyimide was first discovered to exhibit excellent tribological properties in alkaline environments. • The alkaline solution reacts with PI can effectively improve the tribological properties.

Abstract With the deepening of the construction of the new type power system, the grid has become increasingly complex, and its safe and stable operation is facing more challenges. In order to improve the quality and efficiency of power grid management, State Grid Corporation continues to promote the digital transformation of the grid, proposing concepts such as cloud-edge-end collaborative architecture and power Internet of Things, for which comprehensive sensing of the grid is an important foundation. Power equipment is widely distributed and has a wide variety of types, and online monitoring of them involves the deployment and application of a large number of power sensors. However, there are various problems in implementing active power supplies for these sensors, which restrict their service life. In order to collect and utilize the vibration energy widely present in the grid to provide power for sensors, this paper proposes an electromagnetic vibration energy harvester and its design methodology based on a four-straight-beam structure, and carries out a trial production of prototype. The vibration pickup unit of the harvester is composed of polyimide cantilevers, a permanent magnet and a mass-adjusting spacer. The mass-adjusting spacer can control the vibration frequency of the vibration unit to match the target frequency. In this paper, a key novel method is proposed to increase the number of turns in a limited volume by stacking flexible coils, which can boost the output voltage of the energy harvester. A test system is built to conduct a performance test for the prototype harvester. According to the test results, the resonant frequency of the device is $$100\ Hz$$ 100 H z , the output peak-to-peak voltage at the resonant frequency is $$2.56\ V$$ 2.56 V at the acceleration of $$1\ g$$ 1 g , and the maximum output power is around $$151.7\ \mu W$$ 151.7 μ W . The proposed four-straight-beam electromagnetic vibration energy harvester in this paper has obvious advantages in output voltage and power compared with state-of-the-art harvesters. It can provide sufficient power for various sensors, support the construction of cloud-edge-end architecture and the deployment of a massive number of power sensors. In the last part of this article, a self-powered transformer vibration monitor is presented, demonstrating the practicality of the proposed vibration energy harvester.
