摘要
A phenylethynylphthalic anhydride terminated poly(etherimide) oligomer with a molecular weight of M-n = 3000 g mole(-1) has been synthesized for use in high-performance composite and adhesive applications. This reactive poly(etherimide) exhibits excellent thermooxidative stability and solvent resistance upon curing at high temperatures. Towpreg has been produced by coating unsized, G30-500, 12k carbon fiber tow with this oligomer in a powder form. A minimal dry powder prepregging technique was employed for rapid processing to circumvent the problems associated with high viscosity and to perform the operation in an organic solvent-free environment. This towpreg has been manufactured into flat composite laminates via manual lay-up and hot press consolidation and cure. The Mode I and Mode II fracture toughness of these composite panels has been investigated via the double cantilever beam (DCB) and end-notch flexure (ENF) test methods. Fracture surface and microstructure features are correlated with the measured mechanical properties. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
