Abstract
In this work, typical polybenzoxazine, as new class of phenolic resin, has been used as a matrix for preparing a series of high performance hybrid materials using various amounts of titanium carbide (TiC) ranging between 0-10 wt% as fillers, via a solution blending technique. The thermal properties of bisphenol A-aniline base benzoxazine monomers (BA-a) and TiC mixtures have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The thermal stability of their cured hybrids has been tested by means of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The result showed that the glass transition temperature of the prepared composites increased with increasing the amount of TiC to reach a higher value at 194°C. Also, the incorporation of TiC nanoparticles has considerably improved the thermal stability of the hybrids including the char yield which increase by 50 % at 10 wt% TiC content.
