Thermal Degradation Behavior of Composites with Liquid Crystalline Epoxy and Aluminum Nitride

Article Preview

Abstract:

Liquid crystalline epoxy, 4,4’-Diglycidyloxy-α-methylstilbene (DOMS) was synthesized and Aluminum Nitride reinforced DOMS composites were fabricated by melt blending with sulfanilamide (SAA) as a curing agent. Thermal degradation behavior was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under nitrogen atmosphere at the temperature range from 30 to 1000°C. Activation energies for decomposition (Ed) by TGA were determined as a function of conversion by weight loss process.
