Abstract
Benzoxazine resins are a new class of thermosetting phenolic resins that have emerged in recent decades, overcoming the traditional properties of epoxy and phenolic resins applied in the aerospace industry. The incorporation of low mass concentration of carbon nanotube (CNT) in polymer matrices can produce structural materials with superior properties. Thus, this work aims to prepare nanostructured composite benzoxazine resin/CNT and to evaluate the cure kinetic study by differential scanning calorimetry of neat benzoxazine resin and their nanostructured composites produced. Calculations of the activation energy, the reaction order, and kinetic constants are performed by a nonisothermal procedure. In general, it was observed that CNTs act as catalysts for curing the benzoxazine matrix without affecting the initial and final cure temperatures.
