Metal/polymer interactions in polyimide adhesives

Due to their superior thermal and chemical stability, polyimides are often used as adhesives in hazardous environments. This study examines the effect of thioether sulfur in the polyimide backbone on bond strength. X-ray photoelecton spectroscopy (XPS) and reflectance infrared spectroscopy indicated...
