The Thermo-Mechanical and Dielectric Properties of Superhydrophobic Pbz/TiO2 Composites

Polymer composites display the synergistic property of polymer (matrix) and inorganic particles (filler material), when their combination is properly utilized. In present work, possessing a superhydrophobic are fabricated by imposing both surface free energy roughness. Polybenzoxazine (Pbz) choice low material TiO2 contribute to create Thus, Pbz/TiO2 were varying contents produce superhydrophobicity. The hydrophobicity increased from 94° for Pbz 140° Pbz/T5. advantage molecular design flexibility also utilized synthesize benzoxazine monomer (Bzo), which then undergoes thermally induced self-polymerization with different Pbz-TiO2 composites. structure analysis curing behavior Bzo was examined using FT-IR, NMR DSC techniques. Whereas properties analyzed WCA, SEM, DMA, TGA, dielectric
