Resin transfer molding of natural fiber reinforced polybenzoxazine composities

Abstract: Kenaf fiber is incorporated in a polybenzoxazine (PBZX) resin matrix to form a unidirectionally reinforced composite containing 20 wt% fiber by a resin transfer molding technique. Two types of benzoxazine monomer are synthesized and used as resin mixtures: benzoxazines based on bisphenol-A/aniline (BA-a) and phenol/ aniline (Ph-a). The effects of varying BA-a:Ph-a ratio in the resin mixture and curing conditions on mechanical properties of pure PBZX resin and kenaf/PBZX composites are studied. The flexural str… Show more

“…Some approaches enable one to improve the performance of polybenzoxazine for (1) enhancing the toughness of polybenzoxazines through blending with elastomers,15–17 (2) reinforcing polybenzoxazines with inorganic materials18–21 or fibers,22–25 and (3) improving the thermal stability of polybenzoxazines through blending with high‐performance polymers26, 27 or introducing other polymerizable groups, such as ethynyl or phenyl ethynyl,28–30 nitrile,31–34 propargyl groups,35 and allyl group,36–40 into the benzoxazine structure. These functional groups form highly crosslinking network structures after curing.…”

“…Recently, polybenzoxazines (PBZs), as a matrix for advanced polymeric composites (APC) materials, have received much attention. [1][2][3][4] Benzoxazine is synthesized by the Mannich reaction of formaldehyde, phenol or phenol derivative, and primary amine. This compound possesses many useful properties such as no by-products and near-zero shrinkage during polymerization and good molecular design flexibility.…”
