Abstract
Abstract
N,N-Di-2-propyn-1-yl-2-furanmethanamine (DPFA) was synthesized from 2-furanemethylamine and 3-chloropropyne. Then, furan-containing polytriazoles were made from DPFA and diazide compounds. The Diels-Alder (DA) reaction between 4,4′-bismaleimidodiphenylmethane and furan-containing polytriazoles was used to prepare recyclable polytriazole resins. The effects of the main chain structures on the reversible processes and mechanical properties of the resins were investigated. The results show that the flexibility of the chain structures could be regulated by introducing different contents of azide-terminated polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the polymerization process. The PEG segments could not only promote the degree of the DA reaction but also play a role in reinforcing and/or toughening the recyclable polytriazole resins. RFPTA-5 resin film displays a tensile strength of 107.2 MPa and RFPTA-20 resin film shows an elongation at break of 224.8%. Moreover, the resin films demonstrate high recyclability.
