Abstract

Abstract Oligomeric and/or polymeric radiation-reactive polyimidazole and polyimidazo pyrrolone precursors which are soluble in organic solvents, can be prepared with high purity, i.e., especially without chloride, in a simple manner if an aromatic and/or heterocyclic tetraamino compound is reacted in the presence of a carbodiimide, with an olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and a dicarboxylic acid, or with an olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and an aromatic and/or heterocyclic tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, or with an olefinically unsaturated tetracarboxylic acid diester, in the form of an addition product of the tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride and an olefinically unsaturated alcohol. The radiation-reactive precursors prepared in this manner are suitable, for instance, for the manufacture of highly heat-resistant relief structures.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 39 words
A method for manufacturing an oligomeric or polymeric radiation-reactive precursor of a polyimidazole, comprising reacting, in the presence of a carbodiimide, an aromatic or heterocyclic or aromatic-heterocyclic tetraamino compound with an olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and a dicarboxylic acid.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 39 words
A method for manufacturing an oligomeric or polymeric radiation-reactive precursor of a polyimidazole, comprising reacting, in the presence of a carbodiimide, an aromatic or heterocyclic or aromatic-heterocyclic tetraamino compound with an olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid and a dicarboxylic acid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 69 words
A method for manufacturing a polyimidazole precursor according to claim 1 wherein the tetraamino compound is (a) reacted first with the olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid to produce a condensation intermediate which is polycondensed with the dicarboxylic acid or (b) reacted first with the dicarboxylic acid to produce a polycondensation intermediate which is condensed with the olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, each reaction being carried out in the presence of carbodiimide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein dicyclohexyl carbodiimide is the carbodiimide.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein diaminobenzidine is the tetraamino compound.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein acrylic acid or methacrylic acid is the olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 13 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein isophthalic acid is the dicarboxylic acid.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 8 words
A radiation-reactive precursor produced according to claim 1.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 43 words
A method for the manufacture of a protection or insulation layer, suitable for electrical components, which comprises preparing a radiation-reactive precursor of a polyimidazole according to the method of claim 1, and hardening the radiation-reactive precursor to form the protection or insulation layer.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 34 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the carbodiimide is dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, the tetraamino compound is diaminobenzidine, the olefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid is acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and the dicarboxylic acid is isophthalic acid.
