Alkaline‐developable and negative‐type photosensitive polyimide with high sensitivity and excellent mechanical properties using photo‐base generator

An alkaline developable and negative‐type PSPI with a high sensitivity and excellent mechanical properties based on a poly(amic acid) (PAA) and a photo‐base generator has been developed. The PAA was prepared by the polycondensation of p ‐phenylenediamine (PDA) with an equimolar of 3,3′,4,4′‐biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) and 4,4′‐(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6‐FDA) and converted thermally to the corresponding...
