Abstract

Abstract A method for forming a polyimide film on a substrate surface by chemical vapor deposition comprises evaporating an aromatic monomer compound having one amino group and two adjacent carboxyl groups or its derivative group, such as esters of 4-amino phthalic acid, and 4-(p-anilino) phthalic acid, thus a high strength polyimide is obtained represented by the general formula having its imide groups being unidirectionally arranged in its backbone chain: ##STR1## wherein R is nil or divalent aliphatic or aromatic group and n is an integer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 100 words
A method for forming a polyimide film on a substrate surface by chemical vapor deposition comprising: a step of evaporating under vacuum at least one aromatic monomer compound having one amino group and two adjacent carboxyl groups or its derivative group; a step of depositing the evaporated aromatic monomer compound on the substrate surface; and a step of polymerizing the deposited aromatic monomer compound into polyimide which is represented by the general formula having its imide groups being unidirectionally arranged in its backbone chain: ##STR5## wherein R is nil or divalent aliphatic or aromatic group and n is an integer.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 100 words
A method for forming a polyimide film on a substrate surface by chemical vapor deposition comprising: a step of evaporating under vacuum at least one aromatic monomer compound having one amino group and two adjacent carboxyl groups or its derivative group; a step of depositing the evaporated aromatic monomer compound on the substrate surface; and a step of polymerizing the deposited aromatic monomer compound into polyimide which is represented by the general formula having its imide groups being unidirectionally arranged in its backbone chain: ##STR5## wherein R is nil or divalent aliphatic or aromatic group and n is an integer.
