Abstract
Methods of making modified polyimide adhesives and laminating compositions. These adhesives are also particularly useful as the matrix material in high strength fiber reinforced composites. The adhesive compositions are prepared by initially reacting an oxoimine with one or more tetracarboxylic acid dianhydrides, which is primarily 1, 2, 3, 4-butanetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride. The resulting bisimide is dissolved in a non-reactive solvent and a suitable diamine is added to react with the bisimide, producing a liquid resin solution which is essentially a polyamide resin solution. This solution is useful as an adhesive or a fiber composite matrix which can be cured to a polyimide at moderate processing temperatures. The final adhesive bond or matrix is found to be flexible, strong and very resistant to flame, high temperatures, oils and solvents.
