Abstract

Bisphthalamic acids were prepared by reaction between phthalic anhydride and diamines. Flame-retardant poly(ester-amide)s (FR-PEAs) were prepared by reaction between bisphthalamic acids and brominated epoxy resin. Acrylation of FR-PEAs gives flame retardant acrylated poly(ester-amide)s (FR-APEAs). FR-PEAs and FR-APEAs were characterized by IR spectra, elemental analysis and number average molecular weight. Blending of FR-APEAs with methyl methacrylate and styrene was carried out. Curing study of these blends was monitored by Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). Based on DSC data, glass and carbon reinforced composites have been laminated and characterized. The unreinforced cured samples were subjected to thermogravimetric analysis.
