Organic/inorganic hybrid nanocomposites, in particular polymer based hybrid
nanocomposites, constitute emerging advanced materials since they combine unique …

Carbon foams are fabricated by carbonization of polymer foams derived from phenolic resin.
Phenolic resins are a good source of carbon or carbon composite materials due to their low …

Pre-imidization has been found to have a determining role on the final properties of
polyimide (PI) films. In this work, a series of 4, 4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic …

We have developed large-area, high-quality graphite thin films that are 0.5–3 μm thick. To
prepare the graphite films, we used pyrolysis and graphitization of polyimide up to …

The current trends in solar energy industry are directed toward lower costs, while driving the
performance of the devices to higher efficiency and extended applicability. The rigid cover …

Abstract Novel polynorbornene (PNB)‐polyimide (PI) copolymers were synthesized based
on poly (N‐phenyl‐exo‐norbornene‐5, 6‐dicarboximide)(PPhNI) and chlorinated PI …

Polyimide (PI) composite films with thicknesses of approximately 100 µm were prepared via
a sol–gel reaction of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) with poly (amic acid)(PAA) …

Polyimides have attracted increasing attention due to being promising candidate materials
for flexible display substrates. However, to meet the rigorous demands of thin-film transistor …

The effect of side groups on rheological properties of different polysilanes in solution phase
is investigated and correlated, with radial uniformity of estimated thickness of wet films. The …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) gradient mapping method and 2D correlation analysis of in
situ FTIR spectra were used to probe the thermal imidization-induced spectral changes in …
