Study of catalytic effect of ammonium molybdate on the bisphthalonitrile resins curing reaction with aromatic amine

A kind of catalyst, ammonium molybdate was developed in this paper to promote the curing reaction of bisphthalonitrile resins with aromatic amine as curing agent, and the catalytic effect was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rheometric measurements and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results indicated that the catalyst could improve the curing rate and increase the curing degree, which could be regulated by the content of the catalyst used in the reaction.
