Abstract
Epoxy resins cured with active ester exhibited excellent dielectric properties but had deficiencies in thermal performance. To address this issue, this study synthesized three fluorine-containing main-chain type active ester curing agents (AE-1, AE-2, and AE-3) with bisphenol AF, isophthaloyl chloride and benzoyl chloride as raw materials. The effects of these active ester curing agents with different polymerization degree on the properties of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) epoxy resins were investigated. Compared to the DCPD epoxy cured with AE-1,the DCPD epoxy cured with AE-3 which had high polymerization degree exhibited superior thermomechanical properties, thermal stability, and mechanical properties. Specifically, its glass transition temperature (Tg) measured by DMA (Tg -DMA) increased from 177 °C to 188 °C, Tg measured by TMA (Tg -TMA) increased from 130 °C to 149 °C, its 5 % mass loss temperature (Td5%) rose from 336 °C to 359 °C, and the tensile strength improved from 38.5 MPa to 84.4 MPa. At 10 GHz, DCPD/AE-3 maintained excellent dielectric properties, with dielectric constant (Dk) and dissipation factor (Df) values of 2.76 and 7.36 ‰, respectively. Epoxy resins cured with fluorine-containing main-chain type active ester exhibited excellent thermomechanical properties, mechanical properties, and hydrophobic properties while maintaining superior dielectric properties, broadening its application in packaging materials.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this international journal is to analyse and publicise the progress and current state of knowledge in the field of organic coatings and related materials. The Editors and the Editorial Board members will solicit both review and research papers from academic and industrial scientists who are actively engaged in research and development or, in the case of review papers, have extensive experience in the subject to be reviewed. Unsolicited manuscripts will be accepted if they meet the journal''s requirements. The journal publishes papers dealing with such subjects as:
• Chemical, physical and technological properties of organic coatings and related materials
• Problems and methods of preparation, manufacture and application of these materials
• Performance, testing and analysis.
