Abstract

Abstract Polyetherimides are provided and a method for making such materials involving the reaction of organic diamines and 2,2',3,3'-tetracarboxydiphenyl ether dianhydride in the presence of an organic solvent. In instances where a phenolic solvent is employed, useful polyetherimide solutions can be made which can be employed in wire coating applications.
