Development of New and Improved Polymer Matrix Resin Systems. Phase 1.

Abstract

Vinystilbazole (vinyistyrylpyridine) and vinylpolystyrylpyridine were prepared for the purpose of modifying bismaleimide composite resins. Cure studies of resin systems were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. The vinylstyrylpyridine-modified bismaleimide composite resins were found to have lower cure and gel temperatures, and shorter cure times than the corresponding unmodified composite resins. The resin systems were reinforced with commercially available satin-weave carbon cloth.
