摘要:
Thermosets are formed by mixing an epoxy resin with a hardener composition that includes a norbornene-based anhydride hardener such as methyl nadic anhydride and a core-shell rubber. The presence of the core-shell rubber unexpectedly reduces the strong odor of that is normally produced in thermosets containing these anhydride hardeners.

摘要:
A novel hydroxyl-functional polyether derived from the reaction of (a) a divinylarene dioxide, particularly a divinylarene dioxide derived from divinylbenzene such as divinylbenzene dioxide (DVBDO); and (b) a diphenol; wherein the reaction product is thermally stable and exhibits an absence of self-polymerization (crosslinking or gelling) upon heating at elevated temperatures. The novel hydroxyl-functional polyether offers improved properties compared to known hydroxyl-functional polyethers such as solid epoxy resins, phenolic epoxy resins (hardeners), and poly(hydroxyl ethers).
摘要:
In an improved process condensation polymers having terminal arylcyclobutene moieties are prepared. Such polymers are prepared by adding to a condensation polymerization process one or more arylcyclobutene chain terminating compounds along with the multi-hydric compounds and condensation polymer precursors that are typically employed in such a process. Desirably the condensation polymers have an average degree of polymerization of at least about 2, preferably at least about 3 based on multi-hydric compound. This process can be used to prepare a range of condensation polymers including polycarbonates, polyesters and polyester-carbonates. The resulting products can be easily processed and shaped into various forms and structures according to the known techniques. During or subsequent to the processing, the polymers can be crosslinked, by exposure to heat or radiation, for example, to provide crosslinked polymer compositions. These compositions have a good combination of properties, including for example, processability into shaped articles having unexpectedly good combinations of toughness, solvent resistance, ignition resistance, modulus and resistance to thermal linear expansion.
