Abstract
AbstractNovel monofunctional brominated benzoxazine 3‐(2,4,6‐tribromophenyl)‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐1,3‐benzoxazine (P‐bra) and bifunctional brominated benzoxazine 6,6′‐bis(3‐(2,4,6‐tribromophenyl)‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐1,3‐benzoxazinyl) isopropane (B‐bra) were prepared and highly thermally stable polybenzoxazines were obtained by the thermal cure of the corresponding benzoxazines monomers. The chemical structures of these novel monomers were confirmed by FITR, 1H‐NMR and elemental analysis. FTIR spectra and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) suggested that the polymerization was thermally initiated and occurred via ring‐opening of the monomer in each case. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated that brominatation could have a profound effect on increasing char yield and on thermal degradation temperatures. The results of UL‐94 burn test showed that the polybenzoxazines prepared from P‐bra and B‐bra had good flame retardance. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
