Abstract:Polyimides have attracted considerable attention owing to their excellent properties; however, their hydrophilicity makes them susceptible to hydrolytic degradation. In this study, polyaryletherketones (PAEKs) with different fluorine contents were coated onto the surface of the polyimide films to fabricate the hydrophobic surface. The wettability of the films changed, with a transition from hydrophilicity to hydrophobicity, upon coating with PAEKs. Thus, the coated films exhibited low moisture absorption. Due … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
