Definitions
- This invention relates to certain novel blends of phenolic cyanate-phenolic triazine copolymers and epoxy resins, as well as to articles prepared from said blends. More particularly, this invention relates to such blends which have improved properties.
- Phenolic resins are a class of synthetic materials which greatly vary in molecular structure. Therefore, a multitude of applications for these products exists as a result of the array of physical properties that arise from the synthetic options.
- phenolics disadvantageously exhibit less than desirable thermal oxidative stability and produce an extensive, uncontrollable amount of volatile by-products during crosslinking.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,970,276 proposed a modified multifunctional phenolic cyanate/phenolic triazine copolymer (“PT resin”) which had greater oxidative, mechanical, and thermal stability as compared to conventional phenolic resins, and did not produce volatile by-products during crosslinking. Further, these PT resins possessed better elongation properties and higher glass transition temperatures than the conventional phenolic resins. Additional examples of such PT resins are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,970,276, 4,978,727, and 5,126,412.
- thermosettable blends having improved mechanical properties
- Another approach for producing thermosettable blends having improved mechanical properties is by blending dicyanate esters with epoxy resins as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,612,359, 4,506,603, 4,477,629, 4,546,131, 4,487,915, 3,562,214 and in Shimp, et al., “Co-Reaction of Epoxide and Cyanate Resins,” 33rd Int'l SAMPE Symposium and Exhibition 1-13 (Calif. Mar. 7-10, 1988) and Shimp, AroCy® Cyanate Ester Resins Chemistry, Properties & Applications, (3rd Ed. May, 1991).
- These blends have been useful in the production of base materials for printed circuits as disclosed in Patent Nos. DE 4022255, DD 290844, DE 4125420, and DE 4224835.
- thermosettable resin blends which, when cured, possess excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties, there is room for additional improvement in the overall mechanical properties, especially in glass transition temperature, as well as in water absorption.
- thermosettable resin blend which, when cured, is superior to prior art phenolic resins and dicyanate blends in one or more of the properties selected from glass transition temperature, flexural strength, flexural modulus, elongation, and water absorption.
- n is a positive whole number equal to or greater than 1;
- q and r are the same or different at each occurrence and are whole numbers from 0 to 3 with the proviso that the sum of q and r at each occurrence is equal to 3;
- o and p are the same or different at each occurrence and are whole numbers from 0 to 4, with the proviso that the sum of o and p is equal to 4;
- —X— is a divalent organic radical
- R 3 is the same or different at each occurrence and is a substituent other than hydrogen which is unreactive under conditions necessary to completely cure the copolymer;
- Another aspect of this invention pertains to the article resulting from curing the aforementioned blend with a curing quantity of a curing agent, catalyst or mixture of curing agent and catalyst therefore.
- the blend of this invention and the products resulting therefrom exhibit one or more beneficial properties, such as improved glass transition temperature and water absorption.

Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to certain novel blends of phenolic cyanate-phenolic triazine copolymers and epoxy resins, as well as to articles prepared from said blends. More particularly, this invention relates to such blends which have improved properties.
- 2. Prior Art
- Phenolic resins are a class of synthetic materials which greatly vary in molecular structure. Therefore, a multitude of applications for these products exists as a result of the array of physical properties that arise from the synthetic options. However, phenolics disadvantageously exhibit less than desirable thermal oxidative stability and produce an extensive, uncontrollable amount of volatile by-products during crosslinking.
- In order to obviate certain of the disadvantages attendant to phenolics, U.S. Pat. No. 4,970,276 proposed a modified multifunctional phenolic cyanate/phenolic triazine copolymer (“PT resin”) which had greater oxidative, mechanical, and thermal stability as compared to conventional phenolic resins, and did not produce volatile by-products during crosslinking. Further, these PT resins possessed better elongation properties and higher glass transition temperatures than the conventional phenolic resins. Additional examples of such PT resins are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,970,276, 4,978,727, and 5,126,412.
- Another approach for producing thermosettable blends having improved mechanical properties is by blending dicyanate esters with epoxy resins as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,612,359, 4,506,603, 4,477,629, 4,546,131, 4,487,915, 3,562,214 and in Shimp, et al., “Co-Reaction of Epoxide and Cyanate Resins,” 33rd Int'l SAMPE Symposium and Exhibition 1-13 (Calif.

- In a preferred embodiment, based upon the total weight of the blend, from about 0.025% to about 0.06% of manganese octoate with about 0.06% to about 0.07% 2-MI may be employed.
- If desired, the blend, i.e. the PT resin and/or epoxy resin component, can be blended with other compounds such as, for example, solvents, fillers, mold release agents, pigments, dyes, flow modifiers, combinations thereof and the like. Examples of such compounds are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,496,695, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Particularly suitable solvents include, for example, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, methylethylketone, methylene chloride, combinations thereof and the like.
- The PT resin and/or epoxy resin may contain fillers for use in where the structural strength and integrity of a structure has to be maintained, and for other purposes known to those of skill in the art. Any suitable filler known to those of skill in the art may be used. Such fillers may be selected from a wide variety of organic and inorganic materials such as polymers, minerals, metals, metal oxides, siliceous materials, and metal salts. Illustrative of useful fillers are kevlar fibers, rock-wool, slag wool, fiber glass, phenolic fibers, aramide, boron, and carbon fibers, as well as plate like, fibrous and particulate forms of alumna, brass powder, aluminum hydrates, iron oxide, feldspar, lead oxides, asbestos, talc, barytles, calcium carbonates, clay, carbon black, quartz, novaculite, and other forms of silica, koalinite, aluminum silicate bentonite, garnet, mica, saponite, beidelite, calcium oxide, fused silica, calcium hydroxide, synthetic fibers such as paper, pulp, wood flour, cotton, linter and polyimide fibers, and the like.

- For coloring purposes, a curable resin blend of this invention may include white pigments such as titanium dioxide, and coloring pigments or various organic dyes and pigments, such as lead yellow, carbon black, iron black, molybdenium red, prussian blue, navy blue, cadmium yellow, and cadmium red.
- The curable resin blends of the present invention may be prepared by either a wet process or a dry process, both of which are conventionally known in the art. Choice of the process is determined by the proportion of components and final use of the blend.
- In the wet process, each component is individually dissolved in a solvent, then all of the components are blended so as to obtain a curable resin blend having the desired proportion. Alternatively, at least one of the components is dissolved in a solvent, and the other components are added thereto. In view of the high viscosity of both the PT resin and epoxy, it is preferred that, when selecting the latter embodiment, at least these two components are initially dissolved in a solvent before other components are added thereto. Otherwise, it may be necessary to heat the PT resin-epoxy mixture to temperatures ranging from about 65° C. to about 75° C. in order to lower the viscosity and improve the mixing thereof, and thus reduce the likelihood of non-uniformities in the end product.
- The blends prepared according to the wet process contain a solvent or solvents. The solvent may be removed by heating the blend or by keeping the blend under a reduced pressure.
- Solvents suitable for dissolving the components employed in the wet process include, for example, ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, and the like, as well as tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, dimethylformamide, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, and the like.
- According to the dry process, the PT resin and epoxy resin components are continuously mixed via conventional means at temperatures of about 65° C. to about 75° C. until homogeneous. An effective amount of a solution comprised of from about 15 to about 25 percent, based upon the total weight of the solution, of catalyst predissolved in an alkyl phenol solvent, such as nonylphenol, dodecylphenol, o-cresol, 2-sec.butylphenol and 2,6-dinonylphenol, most preferably nonylphenol, may optionally be added thereto such that the amount of catalyst in the homogenously blended blend is from about 0.06 to about 0.07 percent, based upon the total weight of the blend. The resulting blend is continuously stirred for about 20 minutes to about 1 hour until homogeneous.
- Further details regarding both the wet process and the dry process are described in “Formulating with Dow Epoxy resins Electrical Laminates” by the Dow Chemical Company (February 1990).
- The method of curing the resin blend of this invention is not restricted in particular. Usually it is performed by heating. Generally a temperature of about 18° C. to about 400° C., preferably a temperature of about 100° C. to about 300° C., is selected. The time required for curing differs depending upon the form in which the resin blend of this invention is used, i.e. depending upon whether it is a thin film, or a relatively thick molded article or laminate. Usually, a period sufficient for curing the resin may be selected from the range of from about 1 hour to about 2 hours. When the resin blend of this invention is to be used in molded articles, such as those produced via resin transfer molding, compression molding, injection molding, and the like, laminates or bonded structures, it is desirable to apply pressure during the heat curing mentioned above.
- Other curing methods involve use of microwave, radio frequency, ionizing radiation, electron beams from various types of accelerators, gamma-rays from isotopes such as cobalt 60, sunlight, and active energy, for example, light radiated from a light source such as a tungsten lamp, or a low-pressure or high-pressure mercury lamp. In the case of photocuring, the resin blend of this invention may contain up to 5 percent, based upon the total weight of the blend, of a known photosensitizer, for example, an organic carbonyl compound such as benzoin, benzoin methyl ether, benzathrone, anthraquinone and benzophenone, or a combination of a sensitizing dye such as eosine, erythrosine or acridine with an amine. Such a photocurable resin blend containing a photosensitizer is effective in coating applications.
- The blends of the present invention are preferably employed to prepare articles including, but not limited to, composites and laminates, i.e. electrical laminates such as printed circuit boards. In preparing the boards, a fibrous substrate or reinforcing material is impregnated and laminated with one or more plies, preferably about 4 to about 8 plies, of the blend of the present invention. Conventional coating equipment can be employed. Subsequent to coating, the impregnated substrate is cured at a temperature of about 100° C. to about 300° C. for about 1 hour to about 2 hours to form a rigid substrate. The blends can be used to coat and/or impregnate fibrous substrates such as fiberglass, nylon, paper such as that obtainable from DuPont under the tradename “Thermount”, polyimides, graphite, and the like. The substrate can be in the form of woven fabric, mat, monofilament, multifilament rovings, and the like.
- The ratio of the blend of the present invention to the substrate in a prepreg may vary from, based upon the total weight of the prepregnated substrate or “prepreg”, about 20:80 to about 50:50, and preferably from about 35:65 to about 40:60. As used herein “prepreg” shall refer to the substrate coated with the uncured resin blend of the present invention.
- After the rigid substrate is formed, at least one ply, preferably 1 to about 2 plies, of a sheet of copper or other electrically conductive material, e.g. gold, silver, aluminum and the like, can then be laminated to the rigid substrate using laminating conditions such as pressure of about 0.34 MPa to about 2.76 MPa (about 50 to about 400 psi) and temperatures of about 50° C. to about 300° C. applied for about 30 to about 300 minutes. Then a circuit can be etched into the conductive layer using techniques well-known to form circuit boards.

It can be seen in Table IV, that the blend of the present invention has a higher Tg and an improved water absorption than those of the prior art dicyanate ester-epoxy blends. This is because the multicyanated esters of the present invention possess greater than two cyanate groups, which results in blends having a greater percentage of cured bonds and thus upon subsequent reaction, a greater percentage of triazines. The presence of a large amount of triazines contributes to a higher Tg and a lower water absorption.
