Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a curable composition comprising a reactive resin having polymerizable cyanate ester functional groups and a linear poly(bisphenol-diorganosiloxane) copolymer, a method for producing the same, and curable materials and composites obtained therefrom that have high fracture toughness. [Background technology]
[0002] As the demand for composite materials to meet the needs of high-temperature resistance, high-speed data communication, and new technologies for power and hydrogen storage steadily increases, the use of high-performance polymers is expanding. These polymers are lighter than metallic materials while offering advantages such as heat resistance, high mechanical strength, high glass transition temperature, and chemical resistance. Among these materials, epoxy (EP) resins and epoxy resin systems are used in a wide range of applications and are now established as one of the most commonly used high-performance polymers in composite materials, for example, in combination with glass fibers, carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP), or aramid fibers. Furthermore, high-performance organic reactive resins, such as phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resins, cyanate ester (CE) resins, bismaleimide (BMI) resins, polyimide (PI) resins, benzoxazine resins, or phthalonitrile resins, as well as reactive resin mixtures, such as bis(benzocyclobutenimide)bismaleimide, cyanate ester / epoxide, or bismaleimide / cyanate ester (BT resins), have recently gained increasing importance as matrix resins for fiber composite materials in industrial, automotive, and aerospace fields.
[0003] Compared to epoxy resins, polymer matrix resins based on CE, BMI, or PI offer advantages such as high mechanical strength, high glass transition temperature, high heat resistance, and high long-term stability, significantly expanding the applications of these thermosetting resins, particularly in high-temperature regions.
[0004] Furthermore, cyanate ester resins, in particular, are characterized by low water absorption and low dielectric constant in the cured state, as well as good processability in the uncured state. This group of thermosetting resins also represents the best alternative to most other resin systems in terms of toxicological properties and flame retardancy / smoke emission properties. This unique combination of properties makes CE resins an ideal material for a wide range of applications.
[0005] However, thermosetting resin systems based on CE resin also have drawbacks. During the thermosetting process, cyanate ester resins undergo a crosslinking reaction through the formation of trimers of cyanate ester groups (N≡CO-), creating thermally stable cyanurate rings. This results in the formation of a polycyanurate network with high crosslink density. While this highly crosslinked state gives the cured thermosetting resin high mechanical stability, the network is brittle, meaning it has low fracture toughness or impact strength properties.
[0006] Therefore, it is desirable to provide suitable modifiers that are stable at high temperatures and contribute to improving the fracture toughness of cured thermosetting resin networks, so that these CE-reactive resins already on the market can be commercially used as matrix resins in demanding applications such as automotive structures, the aerospace industry, and hydrogen storage and transportation.
[0007] Therefore, the objective of the present invention is to provide a thermosetting resin that has been cured after the molding and curing process with higher fracture toughness (K Ic The organic cyanate ester resin is modified to have improved aging resistance as a result, while at the same time, the advantageous properties inherent to thermosetting resins, such as thermal oxidation stability, high glass transition temperature, and high mechanical strength, are largely retained even in the thermosetting resin thus modified.
[0008] The fracture toughness of cyanate ester resins is known to be improved by a second organic or inorganic phase. Effective modifiers whose usefulness has been demonstrated include, for example, thermoplastic resins, elastomers, core / shell particles, and block copolymers.
[0009] Russian Patent No. 2738712 discloses the modification of bisphenol-dicyanate thermosetting resins or prepolymeric bisphenol-dicyanate resins having linear bisphenol-siloxane copolymers terminated with cyanate groups (-OC≡N). During the curing of these mixtures, a cyclization-trimmerization reaction of the cyanate groups between the thermosetting resin and the modifier forms a polycyanurate network modified with alternately arranged bisphenol-siloxane structural units, exhibiting a controllable temperature-dependent memory effect. To obtain this effect, a modifier content of at least 30% is required. The effect of linear bisphenol-siloxane copolymers with other terminal functional groups on the properties of cured cyanate ester resins is not discussed herein. [Overview of the Initiative]

[0029] In the context of this invention, dynamic viscosity is determined according to DIN 53019 at a temperature of 23°C and an air pressure of 1,013 hPa, unless otherwise specified. Measurements are performed using an Anton Paar "Physica MCR 300" rotary rheometer. For viscosities of 1 to 200 mPa·s, a coaxial cylindrical measuring system (CC 27) with an annular measuring gap of 1.13 mm is used, and for viscosities exceeding 200 mPa·s, a cone-plate measuring system (Searle system with CP 50-1 measuring cone) is used. The shear rate is set according to the polymer viscosity (100 s). -1 1-99 mPa·s; 200s -1 100-999 mPa·s; 120s -11,000-2,999 mPa·s; 80s -1 3,000-4,999 mPa·s; 62s -1 5,000-9,999 mPa·s; 50s -1 10,000~12,499 mPa·s; 38.5s -1 33s -1 16,000-19,999 mPa·s; 25s -1 20,000-24,999 mPa·s; 20s -1 25,000~29,999 mPa·s; 17s -1 30,000-39,999 mPa·s; 10s -1 40,000~59,999 mPa·s; 5s -1 60,000~149,999;3.3s -1 150,000~199,999 mPa·s; 2.5s -1 200,000~299,999 mPa·s; 1.5s -1 (300,000 to 1,000,000 mPa·s).
[0030] Once the system for measuring dynamic viscosity is thermally equilibrated at the measurement temperature, a three-stage measurement program is executed, consisting of a run-in phase, pre-shearing, and viscosity measurement. The run-in phase involves taking measurements and gradually accelerating the shear rate over one minute to the shear rate corresponding to the predicted viscosity. Once this shear rate is reached, pre-shearing is performed at a constant shear rate for 30 seconds, followed by 25 individual measurements of 4.8 seconds each for viscosity measurement, and the results are averaged. The average value corresponds to the dynamic viscosity and is reported in mPa·s.

In this measurement, a column array using polystyrene-kodivinbenzene as the stationary phase is calibrated using a polystyrene standard. The array consists of three columns with different pore size distributions in the order of 10,000 Å, 500 Å, and 100 Å, with a maximum size cutoff of 450,000 g / mol.

Here, heating or cooling is carried out as necessary.
[0119] Mixing can be carried out under ambient atmospheric pressure, i.e., a pressure of approximately 900–1100 hPa. Mixing can also be carried out intermittently or continuously under reduced pressure, for example, at an absolute pressure of 30–500 hPa, in order to remove volatile substances and / or air. Alternatively, it is possible to operate under positive pressure, such as an absolute pressure of 1100–3000 hPa, which is possible, in particular, in continuous processing modes, for example, when these pressures are established within a closed system as a result of the pressure during pump operation and the vapor pressure of materials used at high temperatures.
[0120] The method according to the present invention can be carried out continuously, discontinuously, or semi-continuously. Discontinuous implementation is preferred.
[0121] In a preferred embodiment of the method of the present invention for producing the composition according to the present invention, the individual components, excluding component (E), are pre-mixed in any desired order, and then the filler (E2) is impregnated with a bubble-free premix by known processing techniques, such as prepregs (from melts, solutions, or suspensions), sheet molding compounds (SMCs), filament winding, compression molding, pultrusion, fiber spraying, and injection molding methods such as resin transfer molding or vacuum injection, and processed into a molded article.
[0122] The compositions according to the present invention can be used in all applications where organic reactive resin systems or their prepolymers have been conventionally used for the purpose of curing them as thermosetting resins.
[0123] In one modification of the method according to the present invention, components (A) and (B), and optionally components (C), (D), (G), and (H) are mixed in any desired order to form a premix, and then component (E2), preferably a rope, fabric, non-crimped fabric, knitted fabric, or braid, is impregnated with the premix, while optionally pressurized and degassed. In the case of multilayer fabrics or non-crimped fabrics (E2), impregnation and degassing may be carried out individually for each layer or for all layers together.
[0124] In a more preferred modification of the method according to the present invention, components (A) and (B), and optionally components (C), (D), (G), and (H) are mixed in any desired order to form a premix, which is then injected into a mold cavity containing component (E2), preferably a rope, fabric, non-crimped fabric, knitted fabric, or braid. Here, degassing is preferably performed simultaneously during the injection process.
[0125] In a more preferred variation of the method according to the present invention, components (A) and (B), and optionally components (C), (D), (G), and (H), are first mixed in any desired order to form a premix, which is then applied to a release paper. Subsequently, component (E2), preferably an oriented rope, fabric, non-crimped fabric, knitted fabric, or braid, is sandwiched between two sheets of covering paper and passed through a series of heated rollers to obtain complete wettability of component (E2).
[0126] The compositions according to the present invention can be molded into any desired shape by applying mechanical pressure at ambient temperature, or optionally at high temperatures.
[0127] The compositions according to the present invention are preferably moldable, and are particularly preferably molded and cured in a mold cavity or around a molding template.

[0129] Therefore, the present invention further provides a method for producing a molded article by molding and then curing a composition according to the present invention.
[0130] The present invention further provides molded articles that can be obtained from compositions according to the present invention by molding and curing.
[0131] The composition according to the present invention, or a composition manufactured in accordance with the present invention, is preferably degassed before curing, and particularly preferably degassed after molding and before curing.
[0132] The curing according to the present invention is preferably carried out at a temperature in the range of 50°C to 350°C, particularly preferably in the range of 100°C to 300°C, and especially preferably in the range of 120°C to 270°C. The curing according to the present invention is most preferably carried out in steps within the temperature range of 120°C to 270°C.

[0134] The molded article according to the present invention is preferably made of a fiber composite material (or fiber-reinforced plastic "FRP").
[0135] Therefore, the present invention further provides the use of the compositions according to the present invention for manufacturing fiber composite materials.

[0142] After storage at 240 °C for 200 hours, the cured composition according to the present invention composed of, for example, 85 parts by weight of cyanate ester resin (A) and 15 parts by weight of compound (B) shows a weight loss that is higher than that of the corresponding unmodified cyanate ester resin (A), preferably 100% or less, preferably 80% or less, more preferably 60% or less, and particularly 40% or less.

[0149] Exemplary Embodiments The following examples were carried out at atmospheric pressure, i.e., about 1013 hPa, and room temperature, i.e., about 23°C, or at the temperature at which the reactants were mixed at room temperature without further heating or cooling. While the present invention may be carried out in principle, the disclosure is not limited to that.
[0150] Specimen generation Cyanate ester resin (A) was heated to 80°C while being mixed to improve processability. Next, copolymer (B) was added, and the mixture was homogenized on a rotary evaporator at 110°C for 1 hour. Then, it was degassed at 110°C for 1 hour under a pressure of 5 mbar, and after releasing the vacuum with nitrogen, it was immediately poured while still hot into a two-part aluminum mold with a screw-top lid that had been preheated to 160°C. The dimensions of the mold cavity were set to 200 mm × 100 mm × 6.5 mm (length × width × height) to produce test specimens for determining fracture toughness and thermal oxidation stability, and for performing dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). To prevent adhesion and leakage, the inner surface of the mold cavity was treated with a release agent (LOCTITE FREKOTE HMT-2; available from Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, Düsseldorf, Germany), and a 2 mm thick round cord of fluororubber with a Shore A hardness of 75 was placed around the mold cavity. To allow curing, the filled molds were stored in a convection oven according to the following temperature program: (1) Curing at 180°C for 18 hours (2) Heat up to 200°C over 30 minutes (3) Curing at 200°C for 3 hours (4) Heat up to 240°C over 30 minutes (5) Curing at 240°C for 2 hours.
[0151] Next, the test specimens were cooled to ambient temperature in the mold and then removed from the mold. Furthermore, the top 10 mm of the hardened side of the test specimens, which had been open and exposed to air during hardening in the mold, was cut off and discarded before use. Subsequently, test specimens for measuring fracture toughness and thermal oxidation stability, as well as test specimens for DMA, were cut from a large 6.5 mm high hardened test specimen slab to the appropriate length × width dimensions using a diamond saw.
[0152] Fracture toughness K Ic Fracture toughness or critical stress intensity factor K Ic Measurement is 、The test was conducted under conditions of 23°C and 50% relative humidity, as described in the reference "Reactive and Functional Polymers 142 (2019) 159-182". The specimen thickness was 6.5 mm. Fracture toughness K is shown in Table 1. Ic SGMN×m -3 / 2 The result was rounded to two decimal places according to item 4 of DIN 1333:1992-02.
[0153] Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) Measurement conditions: • Measuring device: ARES rheometer (TA Instruments) Temperature range: -100℃ to 400℃ • Heating rate: 4K / min under nitrogen purge • Frequency: 1Hz • Strain: Initial value 0.03%, automatically increases if a signal below the threshold is detected.
[0154] The test was conducted using a rectangular parallelepiped specimen with dimensions of length × width × height = 40 mm × 6 mm × 3 mm. The result showed that the fixed length was 25 mm.
[0155] In the present invention, the glass transition temperature T G This is the maximum value of the tangent delta curve (=tan delta max This corresponds to the measurement temperature at which the ratio of the loss modulus G'' to the storage modulus G' is maximized.
[0156] Glass transition temperature T listed in Table 1 G The value was rounded to an integer according to item 4 of DIN 1333:1992-02.
[0157] thermal oxidative stability In this invention, thermal oxidation stability was determined by gravimetric measurement after storing the test specimens at 240°C. A rectangular parallelepiped test specimen with dimensions of length × width × thickness = 12.00 mm × 6.50 mm × 6.50 mm was used. The accuracy of the gravimetric measurement was ±0.1 mg. The test specimens were first dried in a vacuum oven at 70°C and 30 mbar, with their weight measured every 24 hours until a constant weight was reached. The test specimens were considered "dried" when no further weight loss was detected within 48 hours. Subsequently, the test specimens were stored in a circulating oven at 240°C. After 200 hours, the test specimen was removed and its weight was measured again. The weight reduction rates are as follows:
