چکیده
Three cyanate ester monomer or oligomer species: 2,2-bis(4-cyanatophenyl)propane 1, 1-1-bis(4-cyanatophenyl)ethane (2), and the oligomeric phenolic cyanate (Primaset TM PT30) (3), are blended in various ratios with bis(4-maleimidophenyl)methane, (4), to form binary and ternary mixtures (11 in total) and cured, in the absence of catalysts (3 K/min to 150 °C + 1 hour; 3 K/min to 200 °C + 3 hours), followed by a post cure (3 K/min to 260 °C + 1 hour). The use of liquid monomer, (2), offers the possibility of liquid processing in blends containing minority compositions of bismaleimide. Glycidylmethacrylate is explored as a reactive diluent (2.5-10 wt %) to linked interpenetrating network polymer structures comprising cyanate ester and bismaleimide components with glass transition temperatures of 267-275 oC, depending on composition; the onset of thermo-oxidative degradation ranges from 386-397 oC. When a binary blend of (2) and (3) (with the former in the minority) is co-cured with (4), an excellent balance of properties is achieved with liquid processing, a Tg greater than 400 C and onset of degradation of 425 oC in static air. Kinetic analysis of DSC data using Ozawa and Kissinger methods yield activation energies of between 107112 kJ/mole for a binary blend of (1)90-(4)10, which is in good agreement with literature. Molecular dynamics simulation of the same blend in cured form gave a simulated glass transition temperature of 250 C that is in very close agreement with empirical DMTA data.

Tuning the mechanical properties of glass fiber-reinforced bismaleimide–triazine resin composites by constructing a flexible bridge at the interface
We demonstrate a new method that can simultaneously improve the strength and toughness of the glass fiber-reinforced bismaleimide-triazine (BT) resin composites by using polyethylene glycol (PEG) to construct a flexible bridge at the interface. The mechanical properties, including the elongation, ultimate tensile stress, Young's modulus, toughness and dynamical mechanical properties were studie...

A solvent-free method for the fabrication of thermally conductive epoxy-boron nitride (BN) nanoplatelet composite material is developed in this study. By this method, polymer composites with nearly any filler fractions can be easily fabricated. The maximum thermal conductivity reaches 5.24 W/mK, which is 1,600% improvement in comparison with that of pristine epoxy material. In addition, the as-...

In this paper, some of the electronic and structural properties of UY2(Y=Ga,Ge) compounds are investigated. The calculations was conducted using the pseudopotential method based on the density functional theory with PWscf code.. The exchange function is a correlation between GGA.PBE and LDA. The increase in pressure also leads to positive changes in the enthalpy of the system, which indicates t...
متن کاملOptical Rheology of New Liquid Crystalline Thermosets (LCTs): Influence of Shear on Disclination Texture
Liquid crystalline thermosets (LCTs) have been under intensive study because of their outstanding mechanical performance and low viscosity during processing. We have successfully synthesized four kinds of nematic bismaleimide thermosets that differ in the nature of a pendant group substitution and that feature a thermally stable nematic phase. Importantly, the pendant groups were found to be ef...
