The process for synthesizing a poly(amic acid) polymer or a polyimide polymer is improved by using a solvent system consisting essentially of: (A) a first component consisting essentially of at least one of a sulfoxide, e.g., DMSO, and an alkyl phosphate, e.g., triethyl phosphate, and (B) optionally, a second component consisting essentially of at least one aprotic glycol ether, e.g., dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether. |
