Heat-resistant adhesives polymer chemistry

Yanpeng E is pursuing his PhD in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at ECUST. His current research interests include click chemistry, adhesives, and heat-resistant polymers and composites. 

PAIs are unique materials that have elements of PA (aka nylon) chemistry, as well as aromatic polyimide chemistry. They have exceptional mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties and are considered by some to be at the top of the thermoplastic performance chart. They have high strength, exceptional high heat capability, and broad chemical resistance. Polyamide-imide polymers are melt processible and can be processed into a wide variety of forms—from injection- or compression-molded parts and ingots— to coatings, films, fibers, and adhesives. PAI is often lower in cost than TPI.
