Abstract:Interest in producing chemicals and thermosets from sustainable
resources is growing, yet their moderate performance drastically undermines
their potential applicability. Herein, an aryl dinitrile epoxy precursor
(DVN-EP) was developed from vanillin. After curing with 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl
sulfone (DDS), cyano-containing resin (DVN-EP/DDS) was produced with
eminent comprehensive properties on account of the dual-cross-linked
network formed by the epoxy-amine reaction and the further cyclotrimerization
of cyano … Show more
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.
