Abstract
ABSTRACTA novel bisphthalonitrile monomer containing allyl groups (DBPA‐Ph) had been synthesized via the reaction of diallyl bisphenol A (DBPA) and 4‐nitrophthalonitrile. The chemical structure of DBPA‐Ph was confirmed by 1HNMR, 13CNMR, and FTIR spectroscopy. The curing behaviors and processability of DBPA‐Ph were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic rheological analysis. The monomer manifested a two‐stage thermal polymerization pattern. The first stage was attributed to the polymerization of allyl groups and the second to the ring‐form polymerization of cyano groups. The result of dynamic rheological analysis indicated the monomer had wide curing window and the self‐catalyzed curing behavior. DBPA‐Ph polymers were prepared from the thermal polymerization with short curing time, showing high glass transition temperature (>350°C) and attractive thermal decomposition temperature (>430°C). The outstanding glass transition temperature, desirable thermo‐oxidative stabilities, good processability and sound process conditions could provide more applications to the DBPA‐Ph polymers. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
