Abstract
The organic/inorganic hybrid materials from polybenzoxazine (PBZ) have received much interesting recently due to their excellent thermal and mechanical properties, flame retardance, low dielectric constant, well-defined inorganic framework at nanosized scale level, and higher performance relative to those of non-hybrid PBZs. This talk will describe the synthesis, dielectric constants, and thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of covalently bonded mono- and multifunctionalized benzoxazine hybrids, other functionalized benzoxazine derivatives, and non-covalently (hydrogen) bonded benzoxazine composites.
