The objective of the present work is to synthesize 1,4′-bis (4-amine-phenoxy) sulphone benzene epoxy resin (TGBAPSB) via 1,4′-bis (4-amine-phenoxy) sulphone benzene (BAPSB) and epichlorohydrin in order to obtain tetra functional epoxy with improved properties. The molecular structure of TGBAPSB epoxy resin was confirmed from FTIR and NMR spectral data and molecular weight was determined by GPC and epoxy equivalent weight (EEW) by titration method. The amino functionalized nanoalumina (F-nAl) was synthesized via the sol-gel method using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and has been confirmed by FT-IR. TGBAPSB epoxy resin was further reinforced with varying weight percentages (1-5 wt%) of F-nAl and cured with diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM). The thermal and thermo-mechanical behaviour of TGBAPSB epoxy matrix and nanocomposites were analysed by TGA, DMA and DSC. The surface morphology of the epoxy nanocomposites was examined using XRD, TEM, SEM and AFM studies. Data obtained from mechanical, thermal and thermo-mechanical, dielectric and water absorption studies indicate a significant improvement in properties of the resultant epoxy nanocomposites, which appear to be ideal material for advanced high performance applications when compared to those of neat epoxy matrices.

Polybenzoxazines are phenolic-like materials that possess dimensional and thermal stability, and they release no by-products during their polymerization. In this study, a new class of benzoxazine-containing monomers has been prepared from renewable resource (eugenol, a natural phenol obtained from clove oil), paraformaldehyde and various aromatic diamines. The structures of the monomers were supported by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectral analysis, proving the existence of the benzoxazine ring containing eugenol moiety in its molecular structure. The monomers were polymerized/cured via ring-opening polymerization by heating as indicated by FT-IR and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). This is confirmed by the disappearance of the peaks due to oxazine ring (942 cm-1). The exothermic peak associated with curing was observed from 170°C to 250°C. The thermal and mechanical properties of the polybenzoxazines were investigated through thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The temperatures corresponding to 5% and 10% weight loss is from 240 to 295°C and from 290 to 340°C, respectively. The completely cured materials could achieve char yields up to 36.5% at 800°C in nitrogen atmosphere. DMA revealed that the glass transition temperatures of PBz-SUL and PBz-PHE were higher than that of PBz-DDS and PBz-OXY.
