Abstract: The effects of cure temperature history on the stability of hinged structure poly (4, 4-oxydiphenylene pyromellitimide) (PMDA-ODA) polyimide were studied by dynamic mechanical analysis. The polyimide films were cured under different curing conditions and peeled off by substrate etching. It was found that a proper cure time and temperature ramp rate improves the stability in terms of higher glass transition temperature. Ninety minutes at 375℃ or 200℃ is a beneficial high glass transition temperature. The temperature ramp rate should be between 2℃/min and 10℃/min, which is neither too high nor too low.
