Abstract
Copolyimides and their precursors are disclosed comprising units having aromatic sulfone and aromatic fluoroaliphatic groups. These copolymers are represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein Ar' and Ar' are the same or different and are ##STR2## where Z is a chemical bond, ##STR3## Ar is the tetravalent residue of a tetracarboxylic acid or acid dianhydride or di- or tetraester thereof where the ratio of x to y is from about 1:99 to about 49:51. These copolymers have improved processing temperatures and can be readily formed into sheets. They may also be used in applications such as hot-melt adhesives or prepregging.
