Preparation and properties of epoxy/amine hybrid resins from in situ polymerization

摘要

Homogeneous and transparent epoxy/amine hybrid resins were successfully obtained through the in situ curing of bisphenol A epoxy and hexakis(methoxymethyl)melamine with 2 wt % (3-glycidoxypropyl)trimethoxysilane as a facial coupling agent. The hybrid resins showed good miscibility, high glass-transition temperatures, good thermooxidative stability, and good flame retardance. The outstanding properties of the hybrid resins may lead to their use in high-performance green electronic products. (C) 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
