Polyimide can also be obtained by carrying out an equilibrium reaction to give a poly (amic acid) which is heated to dehydrate. In other embodiments, the polyimide backbone may have a small amount of amic acid. For example, the ratio of amic acid to imide in the polyimide molecule may be 1?3:100. Due to the interaction between amic acid and the epoxy resin, the substrate has superior properties. In other embodiments, a solid state material such as a thermal curing agent, inorganic heat dispersing particles and phosphor can also be added at the state of poly (amic acid) to give the substrate. In addition, solubilized polyimide can also be obtained by direct heating and dehydration after mixing of alicylic anhydride and diamine. Such solubilized polyimide, as an adhesive material, has a good light transmittance. In addition, it is liquid state per se; therefore, other solid materials (such as the inorganic heat dispersing particles and the phosphor) can be dispersed in the adhesive material more sufficiently.
In one embodiment for preparing the organosilicon-modified polyimide, the organosilicon-modified polyimide can be produced by dissolving the polyimide obtained by heating and dehydration after mixing a diamine and an anhydride and a siloxane diamine in a solvent. In another embodiment, the amidic acid, before converting to polyimide, is reacted with the siloxane diamine.
