High-temperature adhesive polyimide from 2,2-bis[4-(3-amino phenoxy)phenyl]1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro propane

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to high-temperature adhesives and particularly to adhesives having excellent adhesive strength and high-temperature stability.
Polymide obtained by the reaction of tetracarboxylic dianhydride with diamine have known up to this time to have various outstanding properties and good high-temperature stability. Therefore polyimide is expected to develop a wide application in those fields which require stability at high temperatures.
A variety of polyimide has recently been developed and found a use also as adhesives. For example, in TOKKAISHO 58-157190 (1983), polymide derived from various diamines and tetracarboxylic dianhydrides is disclosed to have application to adhesive between a polyimide film and a copper foil in a flexible copper-clad circuit substrate.
Although polyimide adhesive is excellent in the high-temperature stability and adhesive strength, it is further required to be good in high-temperature flowability and easy to process at the time of adhesion.
Since traditional polyimide is generally poor in the light-transmittance and, in addition, has a tinge of brown, it has been unsatisfactory for use as the adhesives having a good transparency.
Therefore the object of this invention is to provide a novel polyimide adhesive having the high light-transmittance, good transparency, outstanding high-temperature flowability and excellent processability in addition to the ability of keeping adhesive strength during and after use at high temperatures.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The inventors have investigated earnestly to achieve the above-mentioned object and completed the present invention.
That is, one of the present invention is a high-temperature adhesive which comprises polyimide having recurring units of the formula (I): ##STR2## (where R is a tetra-valent radical selected from the group consisting of aliphatic radical having not less than two carbons, cycloaliphatic radical, monoaromatic radical, condensed polyaromatic radical, and non condensed polyaromatic radical wherein aromatic radicals are mutually connected with a bond or a crosslinking function).
And another invention is a method for adhesion which comprises applying polyimide having recurrent units of the formula (I): ##STR3## (where R is the same as above) on a substrate, overlapping the applied surface of the substrate with the surface of another substrate and heating under pressure above the glass transition temperature of said polyimide.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Polyimide of the present invention has the above-described formula (I) and is prepared by the following method.
That is, 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane, an ether diamine having the formula (II): ##STR4## is reacted as a diamine component with one or more of tetracarboxylic dianhydride and resultant polyamic acid having recurring units of the following formula (III): ##STR5## (where R is the same as above) is further conducted the ring-closing reaction by dehydration to give ployimide.
Polyimide of this invention has an improvement in using 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane as the diamine component. It has been quite unknown to use polyimide for the adhesives which is derived from the ether-diamine having ether-linkages and aromatic amino radicals in the same molecule as described above.
In the afore-said TOKKAISHO 58-157190(1983), it is disclosed that polyimide prepared from 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane and pyromellitic dianhydride may be used as adhesives. Polyimide derived from this diamine, however, has a high glass transition temperature of above 300.degree. C. Therefore, the adhesives prepared from this polyimide are very poor in processability, and hence cause many troubles and defects in bonding operations and properties of bonded articles.
Besides in TOKKAISHO 59-76451(1984), polyimide is disclosed which is derived from diamine having the above formula (II) and pyromellitic dianhydride. This literature, however, describes no suggestion at all concerning the use of said polyimide for adhesives.
Polyimide of this invention can afford adhesives having excellent transparency, good flowability at high temperatures and outstanding processabitliy in addition to substantial characteristics of high-temperature stability.
Polyimide used in the present invention can be normally prepared by reacting 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane with tetracarboxylic dianhydride in organic solvents.
Tetracarboxylic dianhydride for use in the method of this invention has the formula (IV): ##STR6## (where R is a tetra-valent radical selected from the group consisting of aliphatic radical having not less than two carbons, cycloaliphatic radical, monoaromatic radical, condensed polyaromatic radical, and non condensed polyaromatic radical wherein aromatic radicals are mutually connected with a bond or a crosslinking function).
Tetracarboxylic dianhydride used in the method includes, for example, ethylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride, cyclopentane tetracarboxylic dianhydride, pyromellitic dianhydride, 3,3',4,4'-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,2',3,3'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,2',3,3'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)propane dianhydride, 2,2-bis(2,3-dicarboxyphenyl(propane dianhydride, bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)ether dianhydride, bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)sulfone dianhydride, 1,1-bis-(2,3-dicarboxyphenyl)ethane dianhydride, bis(2,3-dicarboxyphenyl)methane dianhydride, bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)methane dianhydride, 2,3,6,7-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 1,2,5,6-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 1,2,3,4-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride, 2,3,6,7-anthracenetetracarboxylic dianhydride and 1,2,7,8-phenanthrenetetracarboxylic dianhydride. Tetracarboxylic dianhydride can be used alone or in mixtures of two or more.
Preferred in particular among these dianhydrides are pyromellitic dianhydride, 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride and bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)ether dianhydride. Polyimide obtained from these dianhydrides has extraordinarily excellent transparency and good high-temperature flowability.
3,3',4,4'-benzophenoneteracarboxylic dianhydride is also a preferable dianhydride which can produce polyimide having prominent flowability in high temperatures.
The organic solvents used in the reaction include, for example, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-diethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylmethoxyacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, N-methylcaprolactam, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, bis(2-methoxyethyl)ether, 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethoxy)ethane, bis[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,3-dioxane, 1,4-dioxane, pyridine, picoline, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethyl sulfone, tetramethylurea, hexamethylphosphoramide, m-creaol, p-chlorophenol and anisole. These solvents can be used alone or in mixtures of two or more.
The reaction temperature is normally 200.degree. C. or less, preferably 50.degree. C. or less. The reaction pressure is not restricted in particular and atmospheric pressure is sufficient for carrying out the reaction. The reaction time depends upon the type of solvents, reaction temperature, and tetracarboxylic dianhydrides, and is normally enough to complete the formation of polyamic acid. Reaction for 4 to 24 hours is normally sufficient.
Such reaction affords polyamic acid having recurring units of the following formula (I): ##STR7## (where R is the same as above).
In the next step, thermal dehydration of the polyamic acid solution at 100.degree. to 300.degree. C. or chemical dehydration by treating with imidizing agent such as acetic anhydride afford the corresponding polyimide having recurring units of the formula (I): ##STR8##
The method of applying the polyimide of this invention for adhesive is roughly divided into two procedures.
(1) The polyamic acid precursor dissolved in organic solvent is used as adhesive solution, and imidized before adhesion.
(2) The ployimide is used in the form as it is.
In the procedure (1), the adhesive solution is an organic solvents solution of polyamic acid. It may be the resultant reaction mixture of polyamic acid obtained by reacting 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane with tetracarboxylic dianhydride in the organic solvents. It also may be the solution containing polyamic acid as the main component and polyimide which is a cyclized product of polyamic acid. Thus the adhesive solution containing polyamic acid may be the solution or suspension containing polyimide as an auxiliary ingredient.
When applying the solution containing such polyamic acid, a thin layer of polyamic acid solution is formed on the substrate to be bonded, followed by preheating the coated substrate in air for a desired period at 180.degree. to 350.degree. C. preferably about 220.degree. C. Excess solvents are removed and the polyamic acid is converted to polyimide on the substrate. The coated substrate is overlapped with another substrate and then strongly bonded by pressing under pressure of 1-1,000 kg/cm.sup.2 at temperature of 50.degree.-400.degree. C., followed by curing at temperature of 100.degree.-400.degree. C.
In the procedure (2), above described polyimide is a film previously prepared by thermal dehydration or chemical dehydration with a dehydrating agent such as acetic anhydride. The polyimide is also the powder substantially consisting of polyimide as it is. In these cases, some of said polyamic acid may be contained in said polyimide.
To apply the polyimide films or the powder for adhesion, these are inserted between the substrates and pressed under pressure of 1-1,000 kg/cm.sup.2 at temperature of 50.degree.-400.degree. C. The adherends can be strongly bonded by curing at temperature of 100.degree.-400.degree. C.
