Branched fluorine/adamantane PBO precursor (preFABPBO), synthesized via random co-condensation between 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoro propane, 1,3-adamantanedicarbonyl dichloride, and trimesoyl chloride, is performed as interfacial compatibilizer, bisphenol A dicyanate ester (BADCy) resin as polymer matrix, and poly(p-phenylene-2,6-benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers as reinforcements to prepare PBO fibers/FABPBO-BADCy wave-transparent laminated composites by high temperature molding. The mechanical properties, wave-transparent performances, and heat resistances of PBO fibers/BADCy composites are simultaneously improved by the addition of preFABPBO. The interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and flexural strength of PBO fibers/FABPBO-BADCy composites are 48.9 and 665.3 MPa, respectively, increased by 33.2% and 13.3% compared to those of PBO fibers/BADCy composites (36.7 and 587.4 MPa). The dielectric constant and dielectric loss values at 10 6 Hz are 2.53 and 0.003, respectively, lower than those of PBO fibers/BADCy composites (3.06 and 0.006), and the corresponding wave transmission efficiency is 94.8%, which also presents excellent stability over the wide temperature (25-200 °C ) and frequency range (10 3 -10 7 Hz and 8.2-12.4 GHz). Meanwhile, the heat resistance index and glass transition temperature are 229.9 °C and 247.5 °C , also better than those of PBO fibers/BADCy composites (229.6 °C and 247.1 °C ).
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.
