Benzoxazine is a new kind of phenolic resin developed in recent years. It possesses a lot of interesting properties including flexible molecular design, nearly zero curing shrinkage and corresponding polybenzoxazine shows excellent mechanical and heat resistance properties. However, like other thermosetting resins, polybenzoxazine also faces the disadvantages of high brittleness and low impact strength during use. This paper briefly summaries the research progress of the toughening modification of polybenzoxazine, including rubber elastomer, inorganic particles, thermoplastic engineering plastic, other thermosetting resin, hyperbranched polymer and benzoxazine molecular design modification. Furthermore, the development direction of the toughening modification of polybenzoxazine has prospected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
