Effect of Rubber Contents on Tribological and Thermomechanical Properties of Polybenzoxazine

Abstract:

Bisphenol-A/aniline based polybenzoxazine (PBZ) modified with amine terminated butadiene–acrylonitrile (ATBN) were prepared. The tribological and thermomechanical properties as well as thermal stability of the PBZ/ATBN copolymers were investigated by ball-on-disc tribometer, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), universal test machine and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The inclusion of ATBN at a mass fraction of 5% was found to greatly increase friction coefficient and wear resistance of the copolymers. DMA measurements showed that the storage modulus and the glass transition temperature of the PBZ can be maintained with an addition of ATBN in the range of 1-5wt%. Moreover, flexural property measurements indicated that the flexural strength of the copolymer increased with increasing of ATBN content up to 10wt% whereas TGA results revealed that an increase of the PBZ content can help improve thermal stability of the copolymers.
