| 内容記述 | Several series of aromatic polyetherimide films have been synthesized and characterized with the objective of obtaining maximum optical transparency for applications in space. Incorporation of phenoxy groups into aromatic polyimides has resulted in a reduction in the color intensity of these films compared to commercial polyimide film by reducing electronic interactions between polymer chains. The resulting lightly colored to colorless polyetherimide films have been characterized by UV-visible and infrared spectroscopy before and after exposure to varying doses of UV and electron irradiation designed to simulate use as second-surface mirror thermal control coatings. After exposure to 300 equivalent solar hours UV irradiation and 1 MeV electron irradiation, the polyetherimides were 2.2 to 2.6 times more transparent than commercial polyimide film of the same thickness. |
