Abstract	The pathway producing imide ring closure during the thermal imidization of poly(amic acid) (PAA) was investigated in detail using a new analytical method, two-dimensional (2D) Raman correlation spectroscopy. The signs of the cross peaks in synchronous spectra provided evidence of the thermal imidization of PAA into PI as the heating temperature increased. The signs of the cross peaks in asynchronous spectra suggested that the imide-related modes changed prior to the amide or carboxylic mode, which indicates that cyclization occurred before the amide proton was abstracted.
