Abstract

Tie layers comprised of amorphous polyetherketoneketone are used to join substrates to form laminates and other assemblies.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An assembly comprising a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein a discontinuous tie layer consisting of amorphous polyetherketoneketone is positioned between and directly in contact with said first substrate and said second substrate, and wherein the amorphous polyetherketoneketone consists of repeating units represented by formulas I and II:
-A-C(═O)—B—C(═O)—  I

-A-C(═O)-D-C(═O)—  II

where A is a p,p′-Ph-O-Ph- group, Ph is a phenylene radical, B is p-phenylene, and D is m-phenylene and the isomer ratio of formula I:formula II (T:I) is 60:40 so as to provide amorphous polyetherketoneketone; wherein a contact surface of said first substrate is the same as or different from a contact surface of said second substrate and each of the contact surface of said first substrate and the contact surface of said second substrate is selected from the group consisting of glass, prepreg tape, and aramid films.

2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein said discontinuous tie layer is from about 1 to about 100 microns thick.

3. A method of making an assembly, said method comprising joining a first substrate to a second substrate using a discontinuous tie layer consisting of amorphous polyetherketoneketone said amorphous polyetherketone ketone consisting of repeating units represented by formulas I and II:
-A-C(═O)—B—C(═O)—  I

-A-C(═O)-D-C(═O)—  II

where A is a p,p′-Ph-O-Ph- group, Ph is a phenylene radical, B is p-phenylene, and D is m-phenylene and the isomer ratio of formula I:formula II (T:I) is 60:40 so as to provide amorphous polyetherketoneketone; wherein a contact surface of said first substrate is the same as or different from a contact surface of said second substrate and wherein each of the contact surface of said first substrate and the contact surface of said second substrate is selected from the group consisting of glass, prepreg tape, and aramid films, said method further comprising the step of positioning the discontinuous tie layer between said first and second substrates, whereby said discontinuous tie layer is directly in contact with a surface of said first substrate and directly in contact with a surface of said second substrate.

4. A multilayered laminated assembly comprising a first substrate, a second substrate, and a discontinuous tie layer, said discontinuous tie layer having first and second surfaces and positioned between said first substrate and said second substrate, the laminated assembly being configured such that the first substrate is directly attached to said first surface of the discontinuous tie layer, and the second substrate is directly attached to said second surface of the discontinuous tie layer, wherein said discontinuous tie layer is from about 1 to about 100 microns, and consists of amorphous polyetherketoneketone, wherein the amorphous polyetherketoneketone consists of repeating units represented by formulas I and II:
-A-C(═O)—B—C(═O)—  I

-A-C(═O)-D-C(═O)—  II

wherein A is a p,p′-Ph-O-Ph- group, Ph is a phenylene radical, B is p-phenylene, and D is m-phenylene and the isomer ratio of formula I:formula II (T:I) is 60:40 so as to provide amorphous polyetherketoneketone; wherein a contact surface of said first substrate is selected from the group consisting of glass, prepreg tape, and aramid films, and wherein a contact surface of said second substrate is selected from the group consisting of glass, prepreg tape, aramid films, and metals, wherein said assembly is laminated.
