Abstract
In a process of producing a high-temperature resistant film or a polyimide polymer, a solution of the polymer in an organic solvent is caused to flow out through a slots spinneret of a film forming arrangement and to coagulate in an aqueous precipitation bath containing the organic solvent. The film made up of coagulated liquid is stripped, the organic solvent is removed and the film is dried. In order to attain sufficient strength properties without subsequent orientation and, thus, achieve a better dimensional stability at elevated temperatures, the liquid film formed in the slot spinneret is allowed to fall directly freely into the aqueous precipitation bath through a short air gap. The film formed is drawn off the precipitation bath and is subjected to a subsequent thermal treatment to achieve a transparent homogeneous film. The organic solvent is then removed by treatment with an aqueous extraction agent, and the film is finally dried.
