Polybenzodiazine Aerogels: All-Nitrogen Analogues of Polybenzoxazines─Synthesis, Characterization, and High-Yield Conversion to Nanoporous Carbons

Abstract: Tetrahydroquinazoline (THQ) was designed as an all-nitrogen analogue of main-stream benzoxazine monomers. THQ solutions in DMF gelled at 100 °C via HCl-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization to polybenzodiazine (PBDAZ) wet gels, which were dried in an autoclave with supercritical fluid CO 2 to aerogels. These as-prepared PBDAZ-100 aerogels undergo ring-fusion aromatization at 240 °C under O 2 . This oxidized form is referred to as PBDAZ-240. Chemical identification of PBDAZ-100 and PBDAZ-240 relied on considera… Show more

“…Reflecting the common ring-opening polymerization chemistry, PBO and PBDAZ aerogels were structurally similar; however, the former contains both oxygen and nitrogen heteroatoms while PBDAZ contains only nitrogen (Scheme ). Reasoning by analogy to the pyrolytic chemistry of polyacrylonitrile, , it was discovered that for quantitative carbonization, both PBO and PBDAZ should be subjected to an oxidative ring-fusion aromatization step at relatively low temperatures under oxygen or air. , The resulting materials are termed PBDAZ-240 and PBO-200, where the numerical extensions refer to the oxidation/aromatization temperatures. The prevalent structures of the oxidized forms are included in Scheme .…”

“…PBzs have recently gained considerable interest because of their outstanding potential of exhibiting the excellent properties of traditional phenolic resins, which make them attractive alternatives to a wide range of end-use applications. Aerospace and naval composites, automotive frames and components, , composite pipes for gas or oil, , circuit boards, , aerogels, , self-healing materials, coatings and corrosion protection, and paints , are among these end-use applications. PBzs possess highly attractive features such as high glass transition temperature ( T g ), , low water absorption, near zero shrinkage upon polymerization, , high char yield, , fast evolution of mechanical properties with the conversion, , similar and even lower costs than epoxy and bismaleimides resins, and excellent dielectric properties. , These outstanding properties and intrinsically rich molecular design flexibility allowing good compatibility with other structures have rendered PBz an important contender to epoxy and traditional phenolic resins in the composite industry.…”
