Synthesis and Dielectric Properties of Polyimide-Chain-End Tethered Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane Nanocomposites

Abstract: Polyimide-tethered polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, (R 7R′Si8O12) (POSS), nanocomposites with well-defined architectures are prepared by the copolymerization reaction of a new type of diamine monomer: POSS-diamine, 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA), and pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA). This type of polyimide-side-chain-tethered POSS nanocomposite presents self-assembly characteristics when the amount of POSS exceeds10 mol %, as evidenced by transmission electron microscopy studies. Furthermore, POSS/polyimide nanoc… Show more

“…Verker et al [30] and Zhao and Schiraldi [31] attributed similar behaviour to a disruption of the polymer molecular (chain) structure brought on by POSS concentrations above 5 wt%. Liu and Zheng [32] suggested this observation is caused by a decrease in material density, due to an increase in nanocomposite porosity [33,34]. Additionally, the crosslinking densities per unit volume can decrease with increasing POSS content, compromising the reinforcement mechanism as a consequence.…”

“…The decreased densities could be ascribed to an increase in the porosity of the nanocomposites. [21,22] The porosity of POSS-containing nanocomposites is composed of two portions. One portion comes from the external porosity as a result of the inclusion of POSS cages, which can be interpreted as the increase in free volume of the nanocomposites caused by the interactions of POSS cages and polymer segments.…”

“…In recent 20 years, researches on POSS reinforced resin matrix composites were rising, but most of them used experimental methods [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] , less with theoretical study. Until now, no available and practical theory design models and methods could be applied in engineering.…”
