Polyimide/sepiolite nanocomposite films have been prepared via an in situ polymerization method. The process involves the dispersion of sepioite in N,N-dimethylacetamide, polycondensation of 2,2′-bis [4-(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy) phenyl] propane dianhydride and 4,4′-oxydianiline in the presence of sepiolite suspension to form poly(amic acid), and the thermal imidization of poly(amic acid)/sepiolite nanocomposite. The morphology, thermal and mechanical performance, and water absorption of nanocomposite films were systematically studied with various sepiolite contents. The results indicated that sepiolite was dispersed homogeneously at a nanometer scale in polyimide matrix. Owing to such nanodispersion of sepiolite, the polyimide/sepiolite nanocomposite films exhibit dramatic improvements on the mechanical properties and the coefficient of thermal expansion while fine thermal stability and low water absorption capacity were also maintained. When the sepiolite content increased to 16% the polyimide/sepiolite nanocomposite film achieved as much as 41% and 94% increase on the tensile strength and modulus respectively, and 50% decreased in coefficient of thermal expansion.
