Abstract

AbstractNew novel fire‐resistant and heat‐resistant cyclotriphosphazene‐containing polyimide resins were prepared in situ by the polymerization of (p‐aminophenoxy)(phenoxy)cyclotriphosphazenes with 3,3′,4,4′‐benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid or 3,3′,4,4′‐diphenylsulfonetetracarboxylic acid and a crosslink agent, 5‐norbornene‐2,3‐dicarboxylic acid and were used as polymer matrix compositing with a woven carbon fiber to prepare nadic‐end‐capped cyclotriphosphazene‐containing polyimide/carbon fiber composites. The thermal stability, flame retardance, morphology of the surface fracture, and some physical properties of the composites were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and a material testing system, respectively. The composites had good thermal stability, flame retardance, and mechanical properties. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 90: 810–818, 2003
