Pronounced "poly-ih-mid." A type of plastic (a synthetic polymeric resin) originally developed by DuPont that is very durable, easy to machine and can handle very high temperatures. Polyimide is also highly insulative and does not contaminate its surroundings (does not outgas). Vespel and Kapton are examples of polyimide products from DuPont. See tape automated bonding.

Pyropel rigid polyimide fiberboard is said to offer superior insulating properties across a broad temperature range, exceptional durability and unmatched ease of fabrication and use. The company has collaborated with materials makers to change the compositions of polyimide film and solder resist in order to improve the reliability of the COF, which has copper wires laid on polyimide film. |
