The present invention relates to a method for producing a metal wire embedded flexible substrate from a laminate structure. The laminate structure includes a carrier substrate, a debonding layer disposed on at least one surface of the carrier substrate and including a polyimide resin, a metal wiring layer disposed in contact with the debonding layer, and a flexible substrate layer disposed in contact with the metal wiring layer. The adhesion strength between the metal wiring layer and the flexible substrate layer is greater than that between the metal wiring layer and the debonding layer. According to the method of the present invention, the flexible substrate with the metal wiring layer can be easily separated from the carrier substrate even without the need for other processes, such as laser and light irradiation. The embedding of the metal wires in the flexible substrate layer decreases the sheet resistance of an electrode and can protect the metal wires from damage or disconnection even when the flexible substrate is deformed in shape.

Dinadic phenyl amine reactive endcap monomers for application in high-temperature polymeric composites are described. The amine group of the endcap is directly reacted with a desired chemical backbone to provide the preferred rigidity and chemical resistance. The ability of the amine group to react with a wide variety of chemical backbones allows the tailoring of formulations for various application temperatures, mechanical properties, processes and resistances while retaining the high degree of crosslinking that yields excellent temperature stability, ease of processing and the necessary toughness. Polyimide oligomers comprising the reaction product of at least one dinadic phenyl amine endcap monomer and a chemical backbone, preferably with a molecular weight not exceeding about 1000-3000, suitable for high temperature composites are described. The dinadic phenyl amine endcaps may be reacted with an acid anhydride capped precursor to form polyimide resins suitable for high-temperature composites.
