Abstract
Abstract A metal laminate having high thermal stability is produced by forming a cured film layer of a thermally stable heterocyclic polymer such as polyamide imide having only a small volatile content on at least one surface of one or both of metal plates or foils such as aluminum, separately forming an adhesive layer of a thermally stable heterocyclic polymer having a thickness of one-third or less of the above film layer and containing a volatile matter in an amount of not more than 20% by weight, and then heat bonding both of the metal plates or foils through the above adhesive layer with the film layer being allowed to face the adhesive layer. The metal plates and foils are mutually insulated.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
222 words
A method for producing a metal laminate having high thermal stability and consisting of mutually insulated metal plates or foils with an interlayer of thermally stable polymer film comprising the steps of: A. forming at least one film layer having a substantially small volatile content of at most 3% by weight on a surface of one or both of the metal plates or foils, by coating and drying a solution of a thermally stable polymer containing heterocyclic rings on said surface or surfaces; B. forming at least one adhesive layer on a non-coated surface of one of the metal plates or foils and/or on said at least one film layer, said adhesive layer having a thickness of one-third or less of said film layer and containing a volatile content in an amount of 4 to 20% by weight, by coating and drying a solution of a thermally stable polymer containing heterocyclic rings on said non-coated surface or surfaces and/or said film layer or layers; C. heat-bonding both of the metal plates or foils through at least a film layer and an adhesive layer so that the volatile content uniformly diffuses throughout the bonding interlayer and is confined therein, which is formed of said at least one film layer and said at least one adhesive layer, and is less than 5% by weight.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
222 words
A method for producing a metal laminate having high thermal stability and consisting of mutually insulated metal plates or foils with an interlayer of thermally stable polymer film comprising the steps of: A. forming at least one film layer having a substantially small volatile content of at most 3% by weight on a surface of one or both of the metal plates or foils, by coating and drying a solution of a thermally stable polymer containing heterocyclic rings on said surface or surfaces; B. forming at least one adhesive layer on a non-coated surface of one of the metal plates or foils and/or on said at least one film layer, said adhesive layer having a thickness of one-third or less of said film layer and containing a volatile content in an amount of 4 to 20% by weight, by coating and drying a solution of a thermally stable polymer containing heterocyclic rings on said non-coated surface or surfaces and/or said film layer or layers; C. heat-bonding both of the metal plates or foils through at least a film layer and an adhesive layer so that the volatile content uniformly diffuses throughout the bonding interlayer and is confined therein, which is formed of said at least one film layer and said at least one adhesive layer, and is less than 5% by weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said thermally stable polymer has an inherent viscosity of at least 0.4.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said adhesive layer has a thickness of 2 to 20 microns.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said adhesive layer has a volatile content of 4 to 15% by weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said heterocyclic polymer is polyimide, polyamide imide, polybenzimidazole, polyhydantoin, polythiazole, polyimidazopyrrolone, or a percursor or copolymer of any of these polymers.
