These materials [polyimides], which can be used in various forms including moldings, laminates, films, coatings, and adhesives, have high mechanical properties, wear resistance, chemical and radiation inertness, and excellent dielectric properties over a broad temperature range. ...Chemical structures: Polyimides are heterocyclic polymers, having a noncarbon atom in one of the rings in the molecular chains. The atom is nitrogen and it is in the imide ring.... There are two basic types of polyimides: (1) condensation resins and (2) addition resins. The condensation polyimides are based on a reaction of an aromatic diamine with an aromatic dianhydride.... The addition polyimides are based on short, preimidized polymer-chain segments similar to those comprising condensation polyimides. 3, record 1, English, - polyimides
