Two novel tetramethyl stilbene-based novolac (II and IV) were synthesized from 2,6-dimethyl phenol and chloroacetaldehyde dimethylacetal or chloroacetone, and then the resulted novolacs were epoxidized to tetramethyl stilbene-based epoxy resins (III and V). The proposed structures were confirmed by FTIR, elemental analysis, mass spectra, NMR spectra and epoxy equivalent weight titration. The synthesized tetramethyl stilbene-based epoxy resins were cured with 4,4-diaminodiphenyl methane (DDM) and 4,4-diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DDS). Thermal properties of cured epoxy resins were studied using dynamic mechanical analyzer, differential scanning calorimeter, thermal expansion analyzer and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA). These data were compared with that of the commercial tetramethyl biphenol (TMBP) epoxy system. According to the experimental data, the order of Tg for cured epoxy system is III>TMBP>V. The order of moisture absorption for cured epoxy system is V<III<TMBP. According to TGA, the 5% degradation temperatures in nitrogen atmosphere were in the range 370-377 and 397-412 °C for DDM and DDS curing systems, respectively. In air atmosphere, the 5% degradation temperatures were in the range 372-385 and 410-411 °C for DDM and DDS curing systems, respectively. The CTE is in inverse order with Tg, therefore, III/DDS<TMBP/DDS<V/DDS. 相似文献
Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol fluorene (DGEBF), 9,9-bis-(4-aminophenyl)-fluorene (BPF) and 9,9-bis-(3-methyl-4-aminophenyl)-fluorene (BMAPF) were synthesized to introduce more aromatic structures into the epoxy systems, and their chemical structures were characterized with FTIR, NMR and MS analyses. The curing kinetics of fluorenyl diamines with different epoxy resins including DGEBF, cycloaliphatic epoxy resin (TDE-85) and diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) was investigated using non-isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and determined by Kissinger, Ozawa and Crane methods. The thermal properties of obtained polymers were evaluated with dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results show that the values of activation energy (Ea) are strongly dependent on the structures of epoxy resin and curing agent. The curing reactivity of epoxy system is restrained by the introduction of rigid fluorene into chain backbone and flexible methyl into side groups. The cured DGEBF/fluorenyl diamine systems exhibit remarkably higher glass transition temperature, better thermal stability and lower moisture absorption compared to those of DGEBA/fluorenyl diamine systems, and display approximate heat resistance and much better moisture resistance relative to those of TDE-85/fluorenyl diamine systems. 相似文献
Summary: Novel multifunctional formaldehyde resins bearing diaminodiphenylmethane groups are synthesized by the polymerization of a mixture of diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM), o‐cresol (o‐Cz), and cyclohexanone (CHx) with formaldehyde (FA) (at a molar ratio of monomers/formaldehyde, 1/1), in the presence of acid catalyst (HCl). The obtained resins are epoxidated with a large excess of epichlorohydrin and transformed into multifunctional epoxy resins. The multifunctional epoxy maleimide resins are obtained by reaction of the epoxy resins with carboxy phenyl maleimide in the presence of triethylamine as a catalyst. The resultant resins are characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, elemental, and thermal analysis. The curing and thermal behavior of these epoxy maleimide resin/DDM systems are investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG) techniques. The activation energies of the curing reactions are situated in the range of 53–90 kJ · mol?1. The cured products have good thermal properties, and activation energies of degradation reactions have values between 42–74 kJ · mol?1.

A biphenyl type liquid crystal epoxy (LCE) monomer 4,4′-di(2,3-epoxyhexyloxy)biphenyl (LCBP4) containing flexible chain was synthesized and the curing behavior was investigated using 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM) as the curing agent. The effect of curing condition on the formation of the liquid crystalline phase was examined. The cured samples show good mechanical properties and thermal stabilities. Moreover, the relationship between thermal conductivity and structure of liquid crystalline domain was also discussed. The samples show high thermal conductivity up to 0.28–0.31 W/(m*K), which is 1.5 times as high as that of conventional epoxy systems. In addition, thermal conductive filler, Al2O3, was introduced into LCBP4/DDM to obtain higher thermal conductive composites. When the content of Al2O3 was 80 wt%, the thermal conductivity of the composite reached to 1.86 W/(m*K), while that of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (Bis-A) epoxy resin/DDM/Al2O3 was 1.15 W/(m*K). Compared with Bis-A epoxy resin, the formation of liquid crystal domains in the cured LCE resin enhanced the thermal conductivity synergistically with the presence of Al2O3. Furthermore, the introduction of Al2O3 also slightly increased the thermal stabilities of the cured LCE. 相似文献
This study examined the thermo-mechanical behavior of epoxy resins/nano-Al2O3 composites including the curing behavior, thermal stability, dynamic mechanical properties and thermal mechanical properties. The DSC curve peak temperature of the composites was decreased by the addition of nano-Al2O3. The thermal stability of the composites was similar to that of the neat epoxy resins. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) indicated the glass transition temperature of the composites to be approximately 11 °C higher than that of the neat epoxy resins. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the composites decreased with increasing nano-Al2O3 content. 相似文献
Naphthalene containing aralkyl novolac epoxy resins were synthesized by the condensation of p‐xylylene glycol with 2,7‐dihydroxynaphthalene or 2‐naphthol followed by the epoxidation of the resulting aralkyl novolacs with epichlorohydrin. The mechanical and dynamic viscoelastic properties of cured aralkyl novolac epoxy resins were investigated. Comparisons of mono‐ and di‐functional naphthalene containing aralkyl novolac epoxy resins based on thermal and moisture absorption properties were also studied. The results indicate that a naphthalene containing aralkyl epoxy resin made from the difunctional naphthol has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, high heat resistance, and low moisture absorption. 相似文献

Summary
A novel aryl phosphinate epoxy ether, 10-(2',5'-bis(glycidyloxy)phenyl)-9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide
(DHQEP), was synthesized. The structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by mass, FTIR, 1H, 13C, 31P-NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis, and X-ray single crystal analysis. In addition, compositions of DHQEP with common
curing agents, e.g., 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM), 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DDS), and dicyanodiamide (DICY), were
studied to compare their thermal and flame resistance with that of commercial epoxy resins. The aryl phosphinate epoxy-resin
composites exhibited excellent thermal properties and a quite high limiting oxygen index (LOI) value as well as high char
yield. Aryl phosphinate epoxy ether is shown to be an effective flame retardant and thermal stabilizer for epoxy resins.

Studies were performed to synthesize new ether modified, flexibilized aromatic diamine hardeners for curing epoxy resins. The effect of moisture absorption on the glass transition temperatures of a tetraglycidyl epoxy, MY 720, cured with flexibilized hardeners and a conventional aromatic diamine was studied. Unidirectional composites, using epoxy-sized Celion 6000 graphite fiber as the reinforcement, were fabricated. The room temperature and 300°F mechanical properties of the composites, before and after moisture exposure, were determined. The Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness of the composites was characterized, using a double cantilever beam technique to calculate the critical strain energy release rate, GIC. 相似文献
An investigation of the thermo-mechanical behavior of silica nanoparticle reinforcement in two epoxy systems consisting of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) and cycloaliphatic epoxy resins was conducted. Silica nanoparticles with an average particle size of 20 nm were used. The mechanical and thermal properties, including coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), modulus (E), thermal stability, fracture toughness (KIC), and moisture absorption, were measured and compared against theoretical models. It was revealed that the thermal properties of the epoxy resins improved with silica nanoparticles, indicative of a lower CTE due to the much lower CTE of the fillers, and furthermore, DGEBF achieved even lower CTE than the cycloaliphatic system at the same wt.% filler content. Equally as important, the moduli of the epoxy systems were increased by the addition of the fillers due to the large surface contact created by the silica nanoparticles and the much higher modulus of the filler than the bulk polymer. In general, the measured values of CTE and modulus were in good agreement with the theoretical model predictions. With the Kerner and Halpin-Tsai models, however, a slight deviation was observed at high wt.% of fillers. The addition of silica nanoparticles resulted in an undesirable reduction of glass transition temperature (Tg) of approximately 20 °C for the DGEBF system, however, the Tg was found to increase and improve for the cycloaliphatic system with silica nanoparticles by approximately 16 °C. Furthermore, the thermal stability improved with addition of silica nanoparticles where the decomposition temperature (Td) increased by 10 °C for the DGEBF system and the char yield significantly improved at 600 °C. The moisture absorption was also reduced for both DGEBF and cycloaliphatic epoxies with filler content. Lastly, the highest fracture toughness was achieved with approximately 20 wt.% and 15 wt.% of silica nanoparticles in DGEBF and cycloaliphatic epoxy resins, respectively. 相似文献
