Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure:
Disclosed is a thermosetting resin composition comprising (a) a bismaleimide and/or a polymaleimide and (b) at least one member selected from alkenylaniline derivatives, linear dimers thereof, and polymers thereof. In addition to components (a) and (b), this resin composition can contain (c) a polymerizable unsaturated substance.

Description

~ his invention relates to thermosetting resin co~posi-tions having excellent heat resistance and fast-curing properties.
There are a varie-ty of heat-resistant resins which can be used as insulating materials in order to meet the demands for greater capacities, smaller sizes, lighter weights, and higher degrees of reliability of electronic devices and equipments as well as for better heat resistance characteristics, longer service lives, and maintenance-free properties of electrical machinery and apparatus. Among these heat~resistant resins, imide resins of the addition polymerization type, such as bis-maleimide resins and aromatic diamine-modified bismaleimide resins, are well known. Such bismaleimide resins have excellent heat resistance, but are not very satisfactory because of the difficulties in processing. The melting points of bismaleimides are high and their curing rates are very low. Moreover, their poor solubility in organic solvents necessitates the use of polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and dimethylforma-mide, which are undesirable from the viewpoint of environmental polluiion. Furthermore, an organic peroxide such as dicumyl peroxide or benzoyl peroxide is usually added to maleimide resins for the purpose of promoting their cure. ~hen such a resin composition is used as impregnating varnish to make prepregs, the cleavage products of the organic peroxide remaining in the prepregs may lead to a reduc-tion in quality and perform-ance of the finally obtained laminates and, especially in the case of copper-clad laminates, to blistering or peeling-off of the copper foil.
It is well known that bismaleimides form a three-dimensional network when they are heated above their melting points or subjected to the action of free radicals. It is also known that the presence of a catalytic amount of a free-radical initiator is desirable for the purpose of achieving an effective crosslinking
- 2 -~ ~5~
reaction (see, for example, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., Vol. 81, p.
1187, 1959). By nature, many free-radical initiators have a low activation energy for their decomposition and are unstable and easily decomposable even at room temperature, S so that special care must be taken in their storage and handling.
In accordance with the present invention, there is provided: a thermosetting resin composition comprising:
(a) at least one maleimide selected from the group consisting of bismaleimides and polymaleimides; and (b) at least one member selected from the group consisting of alkenylaniline derivatives, linear dimers thereof, and polymers thereof, the weight ratio of the maleimide to said member ranging from 1:1 to 300:1 The thermosetting resin compositions of the invention can provide a cured product having excellent storage stability, heat resistance, and moisture absorption resistance as well as good electrical and mechanical properties.
The thermosetting resin compositions of the invention can be used in the manufacture of impregnating resins~
adhesives, powder paints and coatings, and molding materials~
The thermosetting resin composition of the invention when used in the vulcanization of rubber, can exhibit excellent crosslinking and vulcanization-accelerating ef~ects.
In accordance with one preferred embodilment of this invention, there is provided a thermosetting resin com-position comprising:

and the like.
The chemical makeuP of the thermosetting resin com-position of the invention may vary widely according to the purpose of its use~ The weight ratio of the bismaleimide and/
or polymaleimide to the alkenylaniline derivative and/or its linear dimer and/or its polymer can generally range from 1:1 to 300:1, the preferred range being from 5:1 to 200:1. If the amount of maleimide used is below the aforesaid limits, the resin composition as used in the form of a varnish will h~ve a shortened pot life and the cured product will show a lowering of thermal stability ox heat resistance~ while if it is above the aforesaid limits, the resin composition will show a decrease in curing rate and will have such poor curability that the cured product may fail to achieve sufficient mechanical strength.
The thermosetting resin composition of the invention can contain a polymerizable unsaturated substance in addition to the maleimide and the alkenylaniline derivative and/or dimer and/or polymer thereof. The term "polymerizable unsaturated substance" as used herein denotes vinyl monomers, radical-polymerizable unsaturated polymers, and radical polymerizable unsaturated oligomers. Specific examples of the vinyl monomers include styrene, substituted styrenes having their su~stituent or substituents on the benzene nucleus, acrylonitrile, acrylic acid and its esters, methacrylic acid and its esters, acrylamide, glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, divinylbenzene, divinyltoluene, diallyl phthalate, triallyl cyanurate, tribromopnenyl allyl ether, and the like. Specific examples of the radlcal-polymerizable unsaturated polymers and oligomers include unsaturated polyester, polybutadiene, polychloroprene, polypentadiene, and diallyl phthalate prepolymer; the fore-going polymers and oli~omers modified by the addition of sty ene, maleic acid, or epoxy resin; cyclic oligomers such as dicyclopentadiene and cyclododecatriene; terpenoids; and the like. These polymerizable unsaturated substances may be used either alone or in combination.
The amount of polymerizable unsaturated substances used depends on whether it is a monomer, polymer, or olgiomer.
However, the ratio of the combined weight of the maleimide and the alkenylaniline derivative and/or dimer and/or polymer thereof to the weight of the polymerizable unsaturated sub-stance can generally range from 1:50 to 200:1, the preferred range being from 1:20 to 100:1. If the amount of poly-merizable unsaturated substance used is above the aforesaid limits, the cured product will show a loweriny of heat resistance and storage stability, while if it is below the aforesaid limits, the fluidity of the resin composition will be too low to exhibit good molding properties.

3l~5~4 The thermosetting resin composition of the invention can be cured by application of heat. Although no particular limitation is placed on the curing temperature, the preferred range is from 30 to 300C. It can also be cured by exposure to radiation such as ultraviolet rays, X rays, alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays.
Depending on the purpose of its use, the thermosetting resin composition of the invention can be either mixed with one or more additional components or dissolved in an organic solvent. More specifically, if the resin composition is to be used as a molding material, one or more inorganic fillers such as silica, silica glass, clay, aluminum hydroxide, asbestos, glass fiber, mica, gypsum, kaolin, cement, talc, zinc white, graphite, magnesite, molybdenum disulfide, titanium white, silica sand, carbon black, barium sulfate, and calcium carbonate can be incorporated thereinto. Moreover, a conventional flame retarder such as brominated organic compounds, antimony compounds, and phosphorus compounds can be added to the resin composition for the purpose of imparting flame-retardant properties thereto.
If the resin composition is to be used in ~he form of a solutioII, it can be dissolved in an organic solvent such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, dioxane, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, tetrahydro-uran, cellosolve, methyl acetate, ethyi acetate, chloroform, benzene, toluene, xylene, and chlorobenzene.
The thermosetting resin composition of the invention can give a cured product having excellent heat resistance, storage stability, and moisture absorption resistance as well as good electrical and mechanical properties, and can bring about an improvement in operating efficiency owing to its good molding I

i and fast-curing properties. Accordingly, it has a wide variety , of industrial applications and can be used, for example, in the manufacture of impregnating resins, adhesives, powdeT paints and coatings, and molding materials. Moreover, when used in the vulcanization of rubber, it can exhibit excellent crosslink-ing and vulcanization-accelerating e-ffects, thereby imparting improved characteristics, such as very high resistance to heat deterioration, to the vulcanized rubber. Thus, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the thermosetting resin composition of the invention is an exceptionally good material having a wide spectrum of functionality.
The present invention is further illustrated by the following examples. In these examples, all parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise nDted.

Examples 1-5 To 53.7g of N,N'-(methylenedi-p-phenylene)bismaleimide were added 10.5g, 3.5g9 2.5g 1.5g and 0.8g, respectively, of N-j(p-isopropenylphenyl)maleimide. These ingredients were thoroughly mixed to form a total of S resin compositions. Each resin composition was melted on an iron plate preheated to and kept at 180C, and the~ stirred well with a spatula to measure the time required for gelation. In addition, the resulting gel was measured by thermogravimetry to measure its loss in weight due to thermal decomposition, the loss in weight being regarded as a measure of its thermal decomposition. The results thus obtained are summarized in Table 1.
