This is a polyimide precursor varnish that can be used as a substrate material for OLED displays. By forming a film on base material and heating it, it becomes a polyimide film with low CTE, high heat resistance and good adhesion to glass.
As a material for backplanes that support the evolution of displays, it contributes to the realization of thinner, lighter and more flexible displays.
