Abstract

Fusible polyimide powders are prepared by the process of this invention. An amic acid amine is first prepared by treating equimolar amounts of a 2,2-bis[4-(aminophenoxy)phenyl]-hexafluoropropane with an unsaturated carbocyclic monoanhydride. The amic acid amine is then mixed with an aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride and the mixture heated to form a polyimide precursor. A chemical dehydrating agent is added in an amount sufficient to substantially, fully imidize the precursor. The resulting fusible polyimide powder is finally separated.
