1,1-Bis(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane-based benzoxazine monomer and 1,1-bis(3-methyl-4-cyanatophenyl)cyclohexane were blended together via in situ polymerization. The chemical blending of benzoxazines with cyanate ester was carried out thermally and the resulting product was analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectra. The benzoxazine–cyanate ester hybrid polymer matrices were investigated for their thermal and morphological properties. The glass transition temperature, curing behavior, thermal stability, char yield, and flame resistance of the hybrid polymer matrices were studied by means of differential scanning calorimeter and thermogravimetric analysis.

“…VE is an inexpensive structural grade resin that represents an alternative to the traditional and more expensive epoxy resin systems often used in automotive applications due to its good strength, toughness, and chemical and corrosion resistance [8][9][10][11][12][13]. VE resins can be easily controlled in liquid forms at room temperature and provide enhanced chemical properties in comparison to other thermoset resins such as polyester or epoxy [14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

Five vapor-grown carbon nanofiber (VGCNF) reinforced vinyl ester (VE) nanocomposite configurations were fabricated, imaged, and mechanically tested in order to obtain information on the influence and the interactions of the role of the microstructure at lower length scales on the observed continuum level properties/response. Three independent variables (the nanofiber weight fraction and two types of nanofiber mixing techniques) were chosen to be varied from low, middle, and high values at equally spaced intervals. Multiple mixing techniques were studied to gain insight into the effect of mixing on the VGCNF dispersion within the VE matrix. The point count method was used for both lower length-scale imaging techniques to provide quantitative approximations of the magnitude and the distribution of such lower length-scale features. Finally, an inverse relationship was shown to exist between the stiffness and strength properties of the resulting nanocomposites under uniaxial quasistatic compression loading.

“…In contrast to the static strengths, the fatigue durability of composites increased proportionally to the content of glass fiber in the matrix, regardless to CF length.2 of 15 to those of the epoxy resins and equivalent processing techniques to those of the polyesters while being more flexible and having higher fracture toughness. VE resin also has good wettability, has strong resistance against acid and alkalis, cures at room temperature, has low moisture absorption, and has good mechanical properties [8][9][10][11]. Carbon fibers have low density (1.8-2.0 g/cm 3 ).…”

Effect of Submicron Glass Fiber Modification on Mechanical Properties of Short Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite with Different Fiber Length

et al. 2020

In this research, three kinds of carbon fiber (CF) with lengths of 1, 3, and 25 mm were prepared for processing composite. The effect of submicron glass fiber addition (sGF) on mechanical properties of composites with different CF lengths was investigated and compared throughout static tests (i.e., bending, tensile, and impact), as well as the tension-tension fatigue test. The strengths of composites increased with the increase of CF length. However, there was a significant improvement when the fiber length changed from 1 to 3 mm. The mechanical performance of 3 and 25 mm was almost the same when having an equal volume fraction, except for the impact resistance. Comparing the static strengths when varying the sGF content, an improvement of bending strength was confirmed when sGF was added into 1 mm composite due to toughened matrix. However, when longer fiber was used and fiber concentration was high, mechanical properties of composite were almost dependent on the CF. Therefore, the modification effect of matrix due to sGF addition disappeared. In contrast to the static strengths, the fatigue durability of composites increased proportionally to the content of glass fiber in the matrix, regardless to CF length.
