Thermal properties of composites with bismaleimide‐vinyl poly(styrylpyridine) blends
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Flammability, thermal properties, and selected mechanical properties of composites fabricated with epoxy and other thermally stable resin matrices are described. Properties measured included limiting‐oxygen index, smoke evolution, thermal degradation products, total‐heat release, heat‐release rates, mass loss, flame spread, ignition resistance, thermogravimetric analysis, and selected mechanical properties. This paper describes the properties of eight different graphite composite panels fabricated using four different resin matrices and two types of graphite reinforcement. The resin matrices included: XU71775/H795, a blend of vinyl poly(styrylpyridine) and bismaleimide; H795, a bismaleimide; Cycom 6162, a phenolic; and PSP 6022M, a poly(styrylpyridine). The graphite fiber used was AS‐4 in the form of either tape or fabric. The properties of these composites were compared with those of epoxy composites. It was determined that the blend of vinyl poly(styrylpyridine) and bismaleimide (XU71775/H795) with the graphite tape was the optimum design giving the lowest heat release rate.
