Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer materials technology, and in particular to a high-strength resin. Background Technology
[0002] Polymer materials, also known as high molecular weight polymers, are materials composed of high molecular weight compounds as the matrix and other additives.
[0003] Currently, due to various component and process limitations in the preparation of traditional resin materials, the interfacial bonding force between the reinforcing fibers and the resin matrix is insufficient when strengthening the mechanical properties of high-strength resins. This makes it impossible to transfer stress. If microcracks or voids appear at the interface, stress concentration and fiber delamination will occur, resulting in unstable mechanical properties and high dispersion of the composite material, which cannot guarantee the reliability of long-term use. At the same time, during the resin curing process, the crosslinking density and network structure uniformity cannot be controlled in real time, which will lead to incomplete curing or local over-curing. Furthermore, curing defects cannot be corrected in time, affecting the overall strength and durability of the resin.
[0004] Therefore, a high-strength resin is proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
