Abstract

A polyamic acid composition including a polyamic acid, the polyamic acid having an imidization ratio of from about 5.0% to about 25.0%, and being obtained by reacting a diamine compound, a tetracarboxylic dianhydride and an acid monoanhydride at an amount ratio that satisfies the following formula (1): 0.970<Y/X<0.998 and Formula (2): 0.00<Z/2(X−Y)<0.50. In Formula (1) and Formula (2), X represents a content (mol) of the diamine compound, Y represents a content (mol) of the tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and Z represents a content of the acid monoanhydride (mol).

Claims (7)

1. A polyamic acid composition comprising a polyamic acid, the polyamic acid having an imidization ratio of from about 5.0% to about 25.0%, and being obtained by reacting a diamine compound, a tetracarboxylic dianhydride and an acid monoanhydride at an amount ratio that satisfies the following Formula (1) and Formula (2):

0.970 <Y/X< 0.998  Formula (1)

0.00 <Z/ 2( X−Y )<0.50  Formula (2)

wherein in Formula (1) and Formula (2), X represents the content (mol) of the diamine compound, Y represents the content (mol) of the tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and Z represents the content of the acid monoanhydride (mol).

2. The polyamic acid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the diamine compound comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of p-phenylenediamine and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether.

3. The polyamic acid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the tetracarboxylic dianhydride comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of pyromellitic dianhydride and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride.

4. The polyamic acid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acid monoanhydride comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydride and phthalic anhydride.
