Abstract
In this comparative study, the charge storage performance of commercial high‐temperature polymer films was evaluated and correlated with their chemical structure. Isothermal surface potential decay measurements after annealing periods at 90 °C revealed that amorphous polyetherimide (PEI) films showed the best charge storage behavior. Polyimide films showed reduced charge storage performance, whereas sulfur‐containing polymer films are not suitable as electrets due to their fast charge decay. Additionally, the effect of water content in PEI films in the range of 0.02–0.79 wt.‐% was studied. Increasing amounts of water decreased the charge storage properties proportionally, but only by a relatively smaller amount: the highest investigated water content of 0.79 wt.‐% reduced the charge by only 30%.
