Abstract: A method for preparing asymmetric 3,4?-(hexafluroisopropylidene) dipthalic anhydride (a-6FDA) and asymmetric 3,4?-(methylene)diphthalic anhydride (a-MDPA) from asymmetric 2,3,3?,4?-benzophenone dianhydride (a-BTDA). First, a-BTDA is converted to its corresponding N-alkyl or N-phenyl bisimides by reacting with either methylamine or aniline. The sequential addition of two trifluoromethyl (CF3) groups to the carbonyl unit of a-BTDA produce the corresponding bisimides of asymmetric 6FDA, which is hydrolyzed to the asymmetric 6F-tetracarboxylic acid followed by cyclodehydration to obtain asymmetric 6F-dianhydride (a-6FDA). Separately, the carbonyl unit of bisimides of a-BTDA is reduced to a methylene unit to afford the corresponding bisimides of asymmetric 3,4?-(methylene)diphthalic anhydride, which is hydrolyzed to the asymmetric methylene tetracarboxylic acid followed by cyclodehydration to obtain 3,4?-(methylene)diphthalic anhydride (a-MDPA).

Abstract: A method for reducing the tilt of an optical unit during manufacture of an image sensor includes the steps of: providing a semimanufacture of the image sensor, carrying out a preheating process, carrying out an adhesive application process, carrying out an optical unit mounting process, and carrying out a packaging process. Due to the preheating process, the semimanufacture will be subjected to a stabilized process environment during the adhesive application process and the optical unit mounting process, so as for the optical unit to remain highly flat once attached to the semimanufacture. The method reduces the chances of tilt and crack of the optical unit and thereby contributes to a high yield rate.

Abstract: This invention relates to the compositions and processes for preparing thermoset and thermoplastic polyimides derived from novel asymmetrical dianhydrides: specifically 2,3,3?,4? benzophenone dianhydride (a-BTDA), and 3,4?-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (a-6FDA).

Abstract: This invention relates to the composition and a solvent-free process for preparing novel imide oligomers and polymers specifically formulated with effective amounts of a dianhydride such as 2,3,3?,4-biphenyltetra carboxylic dianydride (a-BPDA), at least one aromatic diamine and an endcapped of 4-phenylethynylphthalic anhydride (PEPA) or nadic anhydride to produce imide oligomers that possess a low-melt viscosity of 1-60 poise at 260-280° C. When the imide oligomer melt is cured at about 371° C. in a press or autoclave under 100-500 psi, the melt resulted in a thermoset polyimide having a glass transition temperature (Tg) equal to and above 310° C. A novel feature of this process is that the monomers; namely the dianhydrides, diamines and the endcaps, are melt processable to form imide oligomers at temperatures ranging between 232-280° C. (450-535° F.) without any solvent.
