Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A composition of matter consisting of a blend containing (a) 90-10% of an acetylene terminated oligomer having the formula: ##STR3## and (b) 10-90% of the oligomer produced by: combining an aminiophenylacetylene and an aromatic dianhydride in molar ratio quantities selected from the molar ratio group consisting of 1:1, 2:3, and 1:2 molar ratios in a solvent; permitting the combined solution to react for approximately one hour; adding a quantity of a diaminosiloxane to the reacted solution equal to a 0.5, 2, and 1.5 multiple of the respective molar ratio quantity selected for the aminophenylacetylene and aromatic dianhydride; and permitting the resulting solution to react for approximately one and one-half hours at room temperature.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
113 words
A composition of matter consisting of a blend containing (a) 90-10% of an acetylene terminated oligomer having the formula: ##STR3## and (b) 10-90% of the oligomer produced by: combining an aminiophenylacetylene and an aromatic dianhydride in molar ratio quantities selected from the molar ratio group consisting of 1:1, 2:3, and 1:2 molar ratios in a solvent; permitting the combined solution to react for approximately one hour; adding a quantity of a diaminosiloxane to the reacted solution equal to a 0.5, 2, and 1.5 multiple of the respective molar ratio quantity selected for the aminophenylacetylene and aromatic dianhydride; and permitting the resulting solution to react for approximately one and one-half hours at room temperature.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein the aromatic dianhydride is selected from the group consisting of: (a) benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride; (b) pyromellitic dianhydride; (c) oxydiphthalic anhydride; (d) 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride; and (e) 4,4'-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)diphenyl sulfide dianhydride.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
59 words
A prepreg prepared by applying the oligomer blend of claim 1 onto a graphite cloth, air drying the coated graphite cloth for approximately one-half hour at approximately 100° C., and imidizing for approximately one hour at approximately 130° C. to yield a prepreg having improved physical properties of drape, tack, and adaptability for cutting and forming into shaped layers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
71 words
A shaped composite article prepared by cutting the prepreg of claim 3 into a plurality of segments having the desired shape and size, stacking the cut segments into a multiplied preform, heating the preform to approximately 200° C. and maintaining this temperature while applying to the preform a pressure of approximately 1000 psi for approximately one hour, and maintaining this pressure while permitting the resulting laminate to cool to room temperature.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
44 words
The shaped composite article of claim 4, wherein the preform is heated to approximately 200° C. at a rate of 5° C. per minute so that a smooth transition of the imidized polymer is effected through the liquid state into a final crosslinked system.
