摘要
Liquid crystalline epoxies with a biphenyl mesogenic group have been widely studied although it is still in contention as to whether the diglycidyl ether of DGEBP shows a thermotropic phase. DEPBP was synthesized by partial oxidation and the liquid crystalline properties were investigated. Despite their similar structures their molecular weights are quite different. DEPBP has a distinct molecular weight, while DGEBP shows a molecular weight distribution. DEPEBP was also synthesized and characterized to investigate the influence of the flexible spacer. By incorporation of a flexible ethoxy group, the monomer shows no thermotropic property even in its curing reaction with an aromatic diamine, DDM. The curing rate was decelerated and the cured network showed a T-g even lower than that of cured DGEBA/DDM. The curing kinetics of DEPBP and DEPEBP were also tentatively investigated.
