摘要:
Compositions comprising epoxy resins containing one or more rodlike mesogenic moieties per molecule are cured with curing agents which will normally cure epoxy resins. These curable compositions can be oriented by the application of an electric field, magnetic field drawing and/or shear flow prior to and/or during curing. The resultant cured products exhibit an improvement in one or more physical or mechanical properties as compared to a like epoxy resin system which does not contain any rodlike mesogenic moieties.
摘要:
An epoxy resin composition useful as a molded article is curable with a combination of curing agents including diamino-alpha-alkylstilbenes and other curing agents wherein the epoxy resin and/or the other curing agents can contain rodlike mesogenic moieties.
摘要:
Curable compositions are disclosed which contain (I) an advanced resin composition prepared by reacting epoxy resins with active hydrogen-containing compounds which contain mesogenic moieties and (II) a suitable curing agent.

摘要:
Continuous fiber reinforced oriented mesogen-containing resin matrix composites are prepared by (A) saturating a continuous fiber substrate material with a curable composition comprising (1) at least one mesogen-containing resin which contains an average of more than one vicinal epoxide group, thiirane group, cyanate group or vinyl ester group per molecule; and, optionally, (2) a curing amount of at least one curing agent and/or curing catalyst therefor; (B) arranging one or more saturated continuous fiber substrate material(s) formed in step (A) into a desired configuration; (C) subjecting the arranged saturated continuous fiber substrate material(s) from step (B) to a temperature which causes the mesogen-containing resin to convert to a liquid crystalline state; (D) subjecting the heated arranged saturated continuous fiber substrate material(s) from step (C) to a pressure sufficient to cause flow induced shear in the interstices of said continuous fiber substrate; (E) subjecting the continuous fiber substrate material of step (D) to curing conditions either simultaneously with the application of pressure in step (D) and/or subsequent to said application of pressure; and (F) permitting the cured continuous fiber reinforced composite of step (E) to cool to room temperature; thereby forming a cured continuous fiber reinforced composite containing an oriented mesogen-containing resin matrix. These composites have improved properties as compared to composites which are not oriented.
摘要:
Compositions comprising epoxy resins containing one or more rodlike mesogenic moieties per molecule are cured with polyamines containing one or more rodlike mesogenic moieties per molecule. These curable compositions can be oriented by the application of an electric field or magnetic field or drawing and/or shear flow prior to and/or during curing. The resultant cured products exhibit an improvement in one or more physical and/or mechanical and/or thermal properties as compared to a like epoxy resin system which does not contain any rodlike mesogenic moieties.
摘要:
Compounds containing at least one cyanate group, at least one maleimide group and at least one mesogenic or rodlike moiety are prepared by reacting one or more aminophenols containing one or more mesogenic or rodlike moieties with a stoichimetric quantity of a maleic anhydride per amine group of said aminophenol and then cyanating the resulting phenolic functional maleimide.
摘要:
Thermosettable vinyl ester resin compositions are prepared from polyepoxide compounds, optionally monoepoxide compounds, at least one of which contains a mesogenic or rigid rodlike moiety and a monounsaturated monocarboxylic acid. These vinyl ester resins can be mixed with polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomers which can, if desired, contain a mesogenic or rigid rodlike moiety.
摘要:
Epoxy resins of substituted hydroxystyrylaza compounds are disclosed. These thermosettable epoxy resins are cured to give a combination of high mechanical strength and glass transition temperature.
摘要:
A hybrid epoxy resin adduct comprising, consisting of, or consisting essentially of the reaction product of: (A) a material selected from the group consisting of a hybrid polyfunctional aliphatic epoxy resin, a hybrid cycloaliphatic epoxy resin, and combinations thereof; wherein (A) is formed by contacting: (a) a hydroxyl-containing material selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic hydroxyl-containing material, a cycloaliphatic hydroxyl-containing material, and combinations thereof; (b) a material selected from the group consisting of a monoglycidyl ether-containing material, a diglycidyl ether-containing material, and combinations thereof wherein (b) is prepared from a different precursor than (a); (c) an epihalohydrin; (d) a basic acting substance; (e) a non-Lewis acid catalyst; and (f) optionally, a solvent and (B) at least one epoxide reactive compound comprising one or more compounds having two or more epoxide-reactive hydrogen atoms per molecule, is disclosed.
