Abstract

Abstract Vinyl pyridines including vinyl stilbazole materials and vinyl styrylpyridine oligomer materials are disclosed. These vinylpyridines form copolymers with bismaleimides which copolymers have good fire retardancy and decreased brittleness. The cure temperatures of the copolymers are substantially below the cure temperatures of the bismaleimides alone. Reinforced composites made from the cured copolymers are disclosed as well.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 26
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A cured copolymeric resin comprising 15 to 1.0 parts by weight of bismaleimide copolymerized with one part by weight of a 5-vinyl-2-stilbazole of the structure ##STR14## wherein R and R 1 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyls, lower alkoxies, phenyl, alkyl phenyls of 7 to 9 carbons, chloro, bromo and iodo.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
A cured copolymeric resin comprising 15 to 1.0 parts by weight of bismaleimide copolymerized with one part by weight of a 5-vinyl-2-stilbazole of the structure ##STR14## wherein R and R 1 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyls, lower alkoxies, phenyl, alkyl phenyls of 7 to 9 carbons, chloro, bromo and iodo.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
