Abstract

Abstract Thermoset products are prepared by polymerizing (A) at least one thermosettable compound which contains both a maleimide group and a cyanate group such as 3-(2,5-dihydro-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl cyanate and optionally (B) at least one of (1) at least one aromatic polycyanate such as bisphenol A dicyanate; (2) at least one polymaleimide such as N,N'-(methylenedi-p-phenylene)bismaleimide; (3) at least one material having an average of more than one vicinal epoxide group per molecule such as a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A; (4) at least one polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated material such as styrene; or (5) a mixture of any two or more of components 1-4 in any combination.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A composition comprising at least one thermosettable compound which contains simultaneously in the same molecule only one maleimide or substituted maleimide group which groups are represented by the formula ##STR22## wherein each R and R 1 is independently hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to about 3 carbon atoms; and only one cyanate group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
A composition comprising at least one thermosettable compound which contains simultaneously in the same molecule only one maleimide or substituted maleimide group which groups are represented by the formula ##STR22## wherein each R and R 1 is independently hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to about 3 carbon atoms; and only one cyanate group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 87 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said compound is represented by the formulas ##STR23## wherein each R and R 1 is independently hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to about 3 carbon atoms; each R' is independently hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl or hydrocarbyloxy group having from 1 to about 10 carbon atoms or a halogen atom; A is a divalent hydrocarbon group having from 1 to about 10 carbon atoms, ##STR24## n has a value of zero or 1 and x has a value of 4.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 48 words
A composition of claim 2 wherein each R' is independently hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl or hydrocarbyloxy group having from 1 to about 4 carbon atoms or a halogen atom; and when A is present and is a divalent hydrocarbyl group, it has from 1 to about 4 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
A composition of claim 3 wherein said thermosettable compound which contains both a maleimide group and a cyanate group is 3-(2,5-dihydro-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl cyanate or 4-(1-(4-(2,5-dihydro-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl)-1-methylethyl)phenyl cyanate.
