Abstract: The disclosure discusses chiral dopants for liquid-crystalline materials. Chiral dopants can be bioreachable compounds, i.e., compounds produced from microbes through fermentation. Chiral dopants can also include bioreachable materials that are further modified by chemical synthetic steps. Chiral dopants as discussed herein can include biomolecules such as glycyrrhetinic acid (1), S-narigenin (2), shikimic acid (3), alpha-phellandrene (4), betulin (5), malic acid (6), valencene (7), or nootkatone (8), and any stereoisomers or chemically modified derivatives thereof. The disclosure further shows optical properties of such compounds in a liquid-crystalline material.

Abstract: A polyamide-imide material comprises an amidophenyl-ethyl-imide moiety or alternatively an imidophenyl-ethyl-amide moiety as depicted in formulas (I) or (II) in the disclosure. The polyamide-imide material can have selected mechanical properties, such as a tensile modulus between at least 3.5 GPa and at least 7.8 GPa, a glass transition temperature between at least 180°C and at least 305°C, an elongation at break of a film of the polyamideimide material having a thickness of 25 micrometer (± 5 micrometer) of not more than 15 %, or a folding endurance of the film over a pin having a radius of 1 mm between at least 10,000 folds and at least 1,000,000 folds. The polyamide-imide film can have high transparency of visible light, a low yellow index, and a low haze.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods of polyimide synthesis and polyimides made therefore. The method includes placing a tetracarboxylic compound and a solvent in a reaction vessel and adding a first amount of a diamine. The first amount of the diamine is not more than 99.5 mol% of the tetracarboxylic compound inside the reaction vessel. The method can include agitating the mixture and determining a viscosity of the mixture. The method can further include adding a second amount of the diamine. The last steps can be repeated until the viscosity increases to a target value. The target viscosity can be correlated to a peak weight-averaged molecular weight of the polyimide.
