METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A WHOLLY AROMATIC POLYIMIDE POWDER HAVING AN ANTISTATIC OR CONDUCTIVE PROPERTY

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for preparing wholly aromatic polyimide powder with antistatic properties or electric conductivity. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for preparing wholly aromatic polyimide composite powder, comprising the steps of dissolving aromatic diamine in a phenolic polar organic solvent in which electrically conductive carbon black powder and multi-wall carbon nano-tube (MWCNT) powder are dispersed, adding aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride thereto, and polymerizing the resulting mixture. The wholly aromatic polyimide powder prepared according to the method of the present invention shows excellent antistatic properties or electric conductivity simultaneously with maintaining similar or equal heat-resistance and mechanical properties as compared to conventional polyimide resin.
