  • Publication number: 20210283882
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a polyimide film for metal lamination, which is obtained by providing at least one surface of a heat-resistant polyimide layer with a metal bonding layer. This polyimide film has a 5% weight loss temperature of 500° C. or higher in a nitrogen atmosphere, while having a dielectric loss tangent of 0.007 or less at a frequency of 11.4 GHz. It is preferable that the metal bonding layer is formed of a thermally fusible polyimide, or is formed of a heat-resistant polyimide and a silane coupling agent. The present invention also discloses a polyimide metal laminate which is obtained by additionally laminating a metal layer on a surface of the above-described polyimide film for metal lamination, said surface having been provided with the metal bonding layer.

  • Publication number: 20120244352
    Abstract: A polyimide film having improved adhesiveness is produced by flow-casting a solution of a polyamic acid, which is prepared by reacting a tetracarboxylic acid component and a diamine component, on a support, and drying the solution to form a self-supporting film; applying a solution containing a surface treatment agent to one side or both sides of the self-supporting film, wherein the solvent of the surface treatment agent solution is a water-soluble liquid and has a surface tension of 32 mN/m or less at 20° C. and a boiling point of 125° C. or higher; and heating the self-supporting film to provide a polyimide film.
