Polyimide-epoxysilane (coupling agent) composites were reacted with oligomeric PDMS, a condensation product of difunctional silane, by a sol-gel process and were then dried into films. And then, the surface, mechanical, and electric properties were measured. The study showed that PDMS existed in the polymide matrix by the use of FT-IR. In the mechanical properties, the maximum elongation and toughness was increased in the polyimide with silane-groups. But the maximum tensile strength was slightly decreased. And the intensive dispersion of the silane-groups on the surface of polyimide was ascertained through XPS measurement. In the electric properties. AC break down voltage was increased by increasing the amount of difunctional silane. This experiment showed that PDMS added polyimide had better mechanical and electric properties than classical materials.
