P84-Solution Properties
General Properties

P84 polyimide derived from aromatic dianhydrides and aromatic diisocyanates exhibits outstanding thermal stability. The polymer is non melting, has a glass transition temperature of 315 °C. The fibres start to carbonize at temperatures beyond 370 °C. Due to the aromatic structure the polymer and fibres are inherent non flammable. A limiting oxygen index of 38 % can be measured. P84 can be used to temperatures up to 260 °C depending on the environment.

 

Chemical Resistance

P84 polyimide is stable against most common organic solvents like alcohols, ethers, halogenated hydrocarbons or ethers. Strong polar, aprotic solvents like dimethyl formamide (DMF), dimethyl acetamide (DMAC) , N-methyl pyrrolidon (NMP) or concentrated sulphuric acid dissolve P84.

 

P84 Solution

Our customers produce P84 powder and coatings out of the solution. Different solution grades (variation of raw materials, viscosity, solvent) are produced according to the customer needs.
