Abstract

A novel arylacetylene oligomer containing octamethyl POSS units in main chains was prepared from difluoride octamethyl POSS (diexo-(CH3)8Si8O11F2) and diethynylbenzene (DEB) by Grignard reaction and characterized by FT-IR, NMR, WAXD, GPC, DSC, and TGA. The curing reaction kinetic of the oligomer was studied by Kissinger and Ozawa methods and the kinetic parameters were obtained. The cured polymer had good thermal and thermal-oxidative properties. TGA analyses demonstrated that the thermal decomposition temperature (Td5) of the cured polymer in nitrogen and air were 503 and 479 °C, respectively.
