Description

`` T}1i.5 inverltion relates to novel soluble polyimides t;hich are _haracteri2ed by a recurring unit having the following struc'ural formula:

~N ~ ~ Z \ N-Z' ~ I

wherein the four carbonyl groups are attached directly to separate carbon atoms, the carbonyl ~roups being oxtho or peri to each cther so that five or six membered imide rings are ~ormed respectively;
wherein Z is a tetravalent radical containing at least one aromatic ring; and wherein Z' is a divalent organic radical selected from aromatic, aliphatic, alkyl aromatic, cycloaliphatic, and heterocyclic radicals, combinations of these, and radicals with heteroa'om-containincJ bridgin~ groups where the heteroatom in the bridge is oxygen,-sulfur, nitrogen, siliGon or phosphorus, (1) pro~ided that out of the total number o~ polyimide recurring units ~A) 0 to 100 percent of such units have Z equal to a phenylindane radical of the structu_al formula II
Rl CH3 wherein Rl is hydrogen or an al~y]. group of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and ~
(B) 0 to 100 percent of such units have Z' equal to a phenylindane radical of the structural formula Rl R2 ~ R ~ R3 wherein Rl is hydrogen or an alkyl group of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R2, R3, R4 and R5 are independently hydrogen, halogen or (lower) alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and
(2) provided further that out of the total number of Z and Z' radical units, at least 10 percent are phenyl-indane radical units, and
(3) the polyamide acid, from which the soluble polyimide is produced, has an inherent viscosity of at least 0.1, measured at 25C
at a concentration of 0.5% by weight of the polymer in N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, or dimethylfoTmamide.
The polyimides are prepared by reacting an aromatic tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride of the formula O O
Il 11 /c\ /c \
O Z O
C/ \C
Il ll O O

wherein Z is as defined previously, with equimolar or about equimolar amounts of a diamine having the formula 1~)3~;747 H2N _ Z'--NH2 wherein Z' is as defined above, in an organic reaction medium which is a solvent for at least one of the reactants, preferably under substantially anhydrous conditions, at a temperature below 100C and preferably at 20C to 50C. The product of this reaction is a polyamide acid consisting of units having the formula:

~ HO ~ OH

_ - HN- C C -NH- Z' \ O 1' .
lo wherein Z and Z' are as defined above, s~id polyamide acid is then subsequently converted to the polyimide by methods which are well-known in the art.

The phenylindane diamine component of the novel soluble polyimide can consist of any combination of the isomeric or substituted isomeric diamino compounds repre-sented by formula III above. For example, the phenylindane diamine component can comprise from O to 100 % of 5-amino-` 1-(4'-aminophenyl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane in combination with from 100 to 0% of 6-amino-1-(4'-aminophenyl)-1,3,3-tri-methylindane.Further,either or both of these isomers can be substituted over the entire range from O to 100% by any of the substituted diamino isomers represented by 1036~47 lormula III wi~hcut impairing the novel soluble nature of these polyimides. Examples of such substituted diamino isomers are 5-amino-6-methyl-1-(3'-amino-4'-methylphenyl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane, 5-amino-1-(4'-amino-Ar',Ar'-dichlorophenyl)-Ar,Ar-dichloro~1,3,3-trimethylindane, 6-amino-1-(4'-amino-Ar',Ar'-dichloro-phenyl)-Ar,~r-dichloro-1,3,3-trimethylindane, 4-amino-6-methyl-1-(3;-amino-4'-methylphenyl)-1,3,3-trimethyl-indane and Ar-amino-l-(Ar'-amino-2',4'-dimethylphenyl)-1,3,3,4,6-pentame~hylindane. The pre~ixes ~r and Ar' in the above formùlas indicate inde~inite positions for the given substituents in the phenyl rings.

Characteristic of the solubiliæing effect of the phenylindane diamlnes is their p~operty of impar~ing solubility to systems composed of aromatic dianhydrides and diamines through partial replacement of the diamine portion. ~lthough the prior art teaches aromatic polyimides are highly insoluble in organic solvents, it has been unexpectedly found that when as little as 20 mole percent of a diamine is replaced with a phenylindane diamine, a highly soluble polyimide is obtained. Thus, soluble polyimides are produced ~rom aromatic dianhydrides æuch as benzoDhenone tetrac2rboxylic acid dianhydride, pyromellitic dianhydride, etc. Such solubllizing effect may be less pronounced in the case of some difficultly soluble aromatic s~s~ems. However, in such systems, solubility can still be acnieved by further replacement 1`Q36~47 of the diamine portion; for example, by 50 to 100`mole percent replacement by a phenylindane diamine.

Among the phenylindane diamines of the formula III, those are preferrea in which Rl is hydrogen or methyl, R2 and R3 independently of one another axe hydrogen, methyl, chloro or bromo and R4 and R5 independently of one another are hydrogen, chloro or bromo. Moxe preferred phenylindane diamines of the formula III are those in which R is hydrogen or methyl, R2 and R3 independently of one another are hydrogen, methyl, chloro or b~omo, R4 and R5 inde-pendently of one another are hydrogen, chloro or bromo, and the amino groups are at positions 5, 6 or 7 and at positions 3' or 4'. Among the phenylindane diamines of the formula III those are most preferred in which Rl is hydrogen or methyl, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are hydrogen, and the ~ino groups are at positions 5 or 6 and at position 4'.

The phenylindane diamines of this invention may be prepared by Y2rioUS synthetic routes. The most preferable method of preparation is through the acid-catalyzed dimerization of styrene or substituted styrenes to produce the given phenylindane. Then, by subsequent nitration and reduction of the phenylindanes, the phenylindane di~mines are produced. One method of achieving al~;yl substitution on the aromatic rings of the phenylindane diamines is by subjecting alkyl sub-stituted compounds such as benzaldehyde, acetophenoneand the like to a Grignard reaction, followed by water ~036~47 removal to produce the alkyl substituted styrene compound.
Dimerization, nitration and reduction can then be effected as mentioned above. Additionally, it has been found tha~
chlorine gas effects direct chlorine substitution on the aromatic rings of diamino-1,3,3-trimethyl~
phenylindane dihydrochloride to produce chlorinated diaminophenylindanes.

The group Z', as defined above, may be selected from alkylene groups containing from 2 to 12 carbon ~toms; cycloalkylene groups containing from 4 to 6 carbon atoms; a xylylene group, arylene group~
selected from ortho, meta or para phenylene, xylene, tolylene, biphenylene, naphthylene or anthrylene;
a substituted arylene group of the formula ~W~

wherein W is a covalent bond, ~ulfur, carbonyl, -NH, -N-(lower)alkyl, O, S, SS, -N-phenyl, sulfonyl, a linear or branched alkylene group O r from 1 to 3 carbon atoms;
arylene, especially phenylene group; or a dialkyl or diaryl silyl group; R6 and R7 are independent and each is hydrogen; halogen; especially chloro or bromo; lower alkyl from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, especially methyl; lower alkoxy containing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, espe~ially methoxy: or aryl, especially phenyl ~, More prc~erably, Z' en~races groups which are derived ~rom the aromatic diamines disclosed in the i~mediately preceding paragraph. Most preferably, ~` is a group having the formula ~W~

wherein ~ is a covalent bond, methylene, sulfur, oxy~en, or sulfone, and R6 and R7 are independently hydrogen, halogen, or lower alkyl of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, especially methyl, or a g:oup having the formula R8 ~

- wherein R8 is hydrogen, halogen or lower alkyl of from l~to 5 carbon atoms, especially methyl.

Among the n~n-phenylindane diamines that can be employed in the preparation of the polyimides of ~his invention are aromatic diamines as illustrated below:
4,4'-methylenebis(o-chloroaniline) 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine 3,3'-sulfonyldianiline .
4,4'-diaminobenæophenone 1,5-diaminonaphthalene bis(4-aminophenyl)diethyl silane bis(4-aminophenyl)diphenyl silane bis(4-aminophenyl)ethyl phosphine oxide N-{bis(4-aminophenyl3}N-methyl amine N-{bis(4-am-nophenyl)}N-phenyl amine 4,4'-me~hylenehis(2-methylaniline) 4,4'-methylenebis(2-methoxyaniline) ~036747
5,5'-methylenebis(2-aminophenol) 4,4'-methylcnekis(2-methylaniline) 4,4'-oxybis(2-methoxyaniline) 4;4'-oxybis(2-chloroaniline) 5,5'-oxybis(2-a~inophenol) 4,4'-thiobis(2-methylaniline) 4,4'-thiobis(2-me~-hoxyaniline) 4,4'-thiobis(2-chloroaniline) 4,4'-sulonylbis(2-methylaniline) 4,4'-sulfonylbis(2-ethoxyaniline) 4,4'-sulfonylbis(2-chloroaniline) 5,5'-sulfonylbis(2-aminophenol) 3,3'-dimethyl-4,4'-diamino~enzophenone 3,3'-dimethoxy-4,4'-diaminobenzophenone 3,3'-dichloro-4,4'-diamino~enzophenone 4,4'-diaminobiphenyl m-phenylenediamine p-phenylenediamine 4,4'-methylenedianiline 4,4'-oxydianiline 4,4'-~hiodianiline 4,4'-sulfonyldianiline 4,4'-isopropylidenedianiline 3,3'-dimethylbenzidine 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine 3,3'-dicarboxybenzidine diaminotoluene The phenylindane diannydride component of the novel soluble polyimides useful in this inventi.on has the formula Rl CH3 wherein Rl is hydrogen or an alkyl group of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms. Illustrative examples of such dian-hydrid~s are 1-(3',4'-dicarboxyphenyl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane-5,6-dicarboxylic acid dianhydride 1-(3',4'-dicarboxyphenyl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane-~,7-dicarboxylic àcid dianhydride 1-(3',4`-dicarboxyphenyl)-3-methylindane-5,6-dicarboxylic acid dianhydride 1-(3',4'-dicarboxyphenyl)-3-methylindane-
6,7-dicarboxylic acid dianhydride.

These phenylindane dianhydrides are conveniently prepared according to the procedures set forth in U.S.
3,577,442. The individual isomers of th~se dianhydrides can be employed in this invention as well as the ~ixed isomers. Where economy in production of the instant polyimides is of para~ount importance the mixed isomers are preferable. In the soluble polyimides of this in vention these phenylindane dianhydrides can be used in combination with the previously d`iscussed phenylindane diamines and also with the broad range of diamines previously disclosed. Furthermore, from an economy and performance standpoint, it may be advantageo-ls to replace a portion of the phenylindane dianhydride by other dian-hydrides of this invention. Thus, it is seen that the phenylindane dianhydrides, whether in combination with other dianhydrides or not, form novel soluble polyimides ~036~47 with the disclose~ diamincs of tl-is invention, t~nether or not there is any phenylindane diamine component in 'he polymeric structure. The only restriction on the com-position of t~e resulting polyimides is that there be sufficient phenylilldane moiety in the backbone, whether derived from phenylindane diamine or dianhydride, to give solubility to the resulting polyimide. Thus, in ef~ecting the solubility of an easily solubilized poly-imide, the phenylindane moiety can be a relatively minor component of the total diamine and dianhydride content, as for example, 10 to 30 mole percent of the total. On the other hand, in effecting the solubility of a difficultly solubilized polyimide the phenylindane moiety can be a m~re significant part of the total diamine and dianhydride con_ent, as for example, 30 to 75 mole percent of the total. In an advantageous embodiment of this invention, wherein no phenylindane diamine is present, the phenylindane tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride comprises from 50 to 100 and preferably 75 to 100 mole percent of the aromatic dianhydrides employed.

The other dianhydrides useful in this invention are characterized by the general formula C/ \C /
Il 11 O O
wherein the tetravalen~ rad cal z 10;~6~47 is as heretofore defined and m~y be selected from the following gcneral groups; aro~atic, aliphatic, cyclo-aliphatic, heterocyclic, co~binations of aromatic and aliphatic, and substituted groups thereof. The Z groups may be characterized by the following structures:

The preferred aromatic dianhydrides are those in which the carbon atoms of each pair of carbonyl groups are directly attached to ortho carbon atoms in the Z

roup to p.ovide a five-membered ring as follows:

The most preferred non-phenylindane aromatic d;.anhydrides are pyromellitic dianhydride, and aromatic dianhydrides characterized by the general formula ~ ~ R12 ~, where R12 is carbonyl, methylene, oxygen or sulfonyl.

The polyimides produced according to this in-vention are characterized by useful solubility in certain organic solvents. Polyimides heretofore known to the art have generally been extre~ely insoluble, and have not been shapeable after conversion from the polyamide-acid state to the polyimide fo~m. The polyimides of the invention are e~t-emely useful in that they can be dissol~ed in certain solvents, in relatively high concentration, and the solutions can be employed for further fabrication of the polyimides. In this way, it is possible to produce polyimide films, coatings, laminates and the like withou' the necessity of using a polyamide-acid intermediate with a follow-on conversion step. This is highly advantageous, because it permits the application of polyimide coatings to articles which mi~ht be damaged by heating ox chemical conversion techniques heretofore necessary.

The soluble polyimides display excellent physical, chemical and electrical propert.ies which render them capable of being used as adhesive~s, laminating resins, especially for prin~ed circuit boards, fibe.s, coat-30 ings, especially for decorative and electrical purposes, ~036~47 films, ~lire ename's and molding compounds. Solution.s ofthe phenylindane polyimides of this invention can be used to impregnate reinforcing fi~ers and fabrics li~e glass, boron, metal oxide whiskers and graphite. These prepregs can then be cured to form rigid polyimide laminates or composites or to form s~rong thermally resistant structural adhesive bonds between aluminum, 8tainless steel, titanium or other metals.

These polyimides have very good solubili~y in common organic solvents. Examples of such organic solvents are the following:

N,N-dimethylformamide N,N-dimethylacetamide N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone N,N-diethylformamide .N,N-diethylacetamide N-methylcaprolactam dioxane dimethylsulfoxide tetramethylurea pyridine dimethylsulfone r hexamethylphosphoram de ~-tetramethylene sulfone formamide N-methylformamide ~-butyrolactone tetrahydrofuran m-cresol 2-methoxyethyl acetaie 1,2-dimethoxyethane ~Q36~47 bis(2-met~oYyethyl) ether chloroform nitrobenzene.

.
- The solvents can be used alone, in combinations of solvents, or in combination with poor solvents such as benzene, benzonitrile, xylene, toluene and cycloheY.ane.

More specifically, these polyimides have been found to be soluble up to more than 60% in these solvents.
The particular solubility achieved depends on various factors such as the nature of the solvent, the nature of the dianhydride and diamine employed and the extent of any replacement of the phenylindane diamines or dianhydrides of the invention by other diamines or dianhydrides. ~he ~olubilities attained are unique because the phenyl-indane moieties contained in the novel soluble po3y-imides are themselves aromatic in character and might be expected to impart to their polyimides the generally found characteristic of insolubility among aromatic polyimides. Thus, it is most unusual that these phenylindane diamines and dianhydrides can be reacted with aromatic dianhydrides and diamines to produce the instant soluble polyimides.

The unusually high solubility of the novel polyimides of this invention is not completely under-~tood. However, it appears that the cor~.on phenylindane inner structure of both the phenylindane diamines and dianhydrides herein disclosed, said inner structure being represented by the formula .. ~, .

Rl~ CH3 significantly contributes to this solubility. Evidence of this solubilizing activity can be seen from the effect which phenylindane in either its diamine or dianhydride form has on the solubilities of otherwise difficulty soluble aromatic dianhydrides. Pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4'-methylenedianiline are well known examples of materials, which, in combination with conventional aromatic diamines and dianhydrides generally yield poorly soluble high molecular weight polyimides. Yet, when 5t5)-amino-1-(4'-aminoPhenYl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane is polymeri~ed with py_omellit c dianhydride a highly soluble polyimide results, e.g., solubility greater than 40 weight percent in dimethyl-foxmamide is afforded. Again, when 1-(~',4'-dicarboxy-phenyl)-1,3,3-trimethylindane-5,6(6,7)-dicarboxylic acid dianhydride is polymerized with 4,4'-methylene-dianiline a very sol~le polyimide results.

The polyimides are prepared by a process com-prising reactins the abGve described aromatic primary diamino compounds with dianhydrides in an organic reaction medium which is a solvent for at least one of the reactants, preferably under substantially anhydrous conditions, at a temperature below 100C and con-~036~47 veniently at roo~ temperature. The product of this reaction is a polyamide acid represented by the follo~ing formula:

/ HOC \ / COH
t t This polyamide acid has a molecular weight such that its inherent viscosity is at least 0.1, preferably 0.~-5Ø The inherent viscosity is measured at 25C at a concentration of 0.5% by weight of the polymer in a suitable solvent, e.g., N,N-dimethyl-acetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylforr,amide, etc.

The polyamide acid is subsequent]y converted to the polyimide by several methods which include heating the polyamide acid soluticn at temperatures bet~een 100C and 240C depending on the boiling point of the organic solvent, until imidization is com?lete; by ohemical means, e.g., by adding to the polyamide acid solution a dehydrating agent such as acetic anhydride alone or in combination with a tertiary a~ine catalyst such as pyridine and opt onally heating or not heating the resulting solution at about 120C until imidization i~; colnplete.

1a36747 More specifically, the preparation of the poly-amide acid which is subsequently converted to the polyimide can be conveniently carried out in a number of ways. The diamines and dianhydrides can be pre-mixed as dry solids in equivalent amounts and the resulting mixture can be added, in small portions and with agitation, to~an organic solvent. Alternately, this order of addition can be reversed, i.e., after premixing the diamine and the dianhydride the solvent may be added to the mixture with agitation. It i~
also possible to dissolve the diamine in the solvent while agitating ar.d to add slotYly the aianhydride in portions that provide a controllable rate of reaction.
However, this order of addition can also be varied.
Still another process involves dissolving the diamine in one portion of a solvent and the dianhydriàe in another portion of the same or another solvent and then mixing the two solutions.

~ To effect the conversion of the polyamide acids to the polyimides, the polyamide acids are heated above 50C and preferably in an inert atmosphere and mo e pre~erably in an inert atmosphere between 110C and 240C.
In the preferred process, the polyamide acids are prepared at a temperature below 50C and maintained at this temperature until maximum viscosity is obtained denotin~ maximum polymerization. The polyamide acid in solution and under an inert atmosphere is subsequently heated to about 110C to 240C to convert the polyamide ~ Q3674`~
acid to the polyimide. The soluble polyimide may be alternatively prepared by mixing the diamine and the dianhydride at room temperature in a solvent such as rlitrobenzene and then rapidly heating the mixture to reflux for about 2 to 12 hours.

` The soluble polyimides can be precipitated from their solutions by use of methanol, water, acetone, spray drying and the like. The resulting granular material can be molded or redissolved in a suitable solvent to yield a film-forming or varnish type com-position. Other appropriate ingredients can be added to the polyimide solutions or molding po~ders including fillers, dyes, pigments, thermal stabilizers and rein-forcing agents, such as glass fiber, carbon, '~oron and the like, depending on the end use.

The polyimides from phenylindane diamines and dianhydriaes are further characterized by high glass transition temperatures (Tg). This makes it possible for the phenylindane polyimides to be used at higher temperatures than many prior art polyimides. Since at temperatures above the transition temperature the polymers lose their stiffness and mechanical properties, any increase in transition temperature is of great importance.

To further illustrate the nature of this invention and the process employed in preparing the ~oluble polyimides, the following examples are given below.
