Abstract

The SiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles hybrid Polyimide (PI) films were prepared by Sol-Gel, The microstructure, nanoparticle distribution and stability in the hybrid films were studied by SEM and TEM. The results shown that there were SiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles dispersing homogeneously in the inorganic hybrid PI films and they were stable usually, even if they were irradiated by electron beam at 20 keV, The particle sizes were about 5 ∼ 40 nm, while SiO2 was smaller than Al2O3. The results of TEM observation shown that the clusters of SiO2 with amorphous structure in hybrid PI film irradiated by high energy electron beam of 200 keV for 2s can be easily broken up. However, some grains of Al2O3 with the crystalline structure were rather stable and PI structure did not any change under the condition of high energy irradiation.
