β¦ Synopsis
The water sorption behavior and the activation energy were investigated for various chemical structure polyimide thin films; BPDA-PDA, BPDA-ODA, PMDA-ODA, and 6FDA-ODA. The activation energy for the water diffusion varied in the range of 5.53 to 9.27kcal/mol, and was in the increasing order: BPDA-PDA Ο½ BPDA-ODA Ο½ PMDA-ODA Ο½ 6FDA-ODA. BPDA-PDA and BPDA-ODA polyimide films showed relatively well-ordered morphological structure, which results in relatively low diffusion coefficient and high activation energy. It was found that the diffusion coefficient and the activation energy are significantly related to the in-plane orientation, crystallinity, and packing order in the polyimide thin films. The morphological structure was predominant factors for the water diffusion coefficient and activation energy in the polyimide thin films.

## Abstract We prepared poly(__p__βphenylene pyromellitimide) (PMDAβPDA), poly(__p__βphenylene 4,4β²βhexafluoroisopropylidene diphthalimide), and their copolyimides with various compositions to explore the relationship between the water sorption and structure. The water sorption behaviors were gravi
