Based on the synthesis of a rigid aromatic diamine, α,α-bis(4-aminophenyl)-4-(t-butyl)toluene (1), a novel polyimide (PI) 3 was prepared from this diamine monomer and 4,4′-oxydiphthalic dianhydride via a one-step high-temperature polycondensation. FT-IR, 1H NMR and elemental analysis were used to investigate the chemical structures of 1 and 3. The results confirmed that they agreed with the proposed structures for both 1 and 3 completely. The obtained PI 3 showed excellent solubility in most common solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, chloroform, dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran. The resulting strong and flexible film exhibited high thermal stability with the glass transition temperature at 317°C and the temperature at 10% weight loss beyond 519°C in both air and nitrogen atmospheres. Moreover, the film also showed high optical transparency, low dielectric constant (3.13 at 1 MHz), low water absorption (0.40%) and hydrophobic character.
