Biobased Composites Prepared Using an Environmentally Friendly Water-Slurry Methodology
To
improve processability of benzoxazine monomer in preparation
of composites, a water-slurry strategy was examined using several
laboratory-scale instances. The water slurries were fabricated by
mixing solid resin powder of 3-furfury-8-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2<i>H</i>-1,3- benzoxazine with water and one type of filler particle,
i.e., calcium carbonate, montmorillonite, or hollow glass beads. Experimental
data show that approving liquidity can be achieved when more than
180 phr of water was mixed in the solid mixtures containing the resin
powder and 100 phr of solid filler. The biobased composite prepared
using the optimized condition exhibits outstanding mechanical properties
and antifatigue performance as the composites prepared via solvent
method. This water-slurry approach provides an environmentally friendly
strategy to manuscript benzoxazine composites, offering benzoxazine
with more promising applications in many industries such as building,
wind energy, aircraft, and automobile
