Abstract

Polyimide (PI)/ bisphenol A dicyanate esters (BADCy) composite laminates with varying resin contents were prepared by filament winding and autoclave molding process. The laminates exhibited ultralow dielectric constant (ε of 3.15–3.25) and dielectric loss (tanδ of 0.004–0.006) as well as excellent mechanical properties. When the resin content was 35.6%, the composite achieved outstanding comprehensive properties with tensile strength and modulus equal to 1485.1 MPa and 80.9 GPa, respectively, and the inter-laminar shear strength (ILSS) up to 66.2 MPa. The failure mode of laminates followed an explosive gage middle (XGM) mechanism, which suggested a favorable interface between fiber and resin. According to the mixed law equation, PI fiber at a frequency of 10.2 GHz exhibited dielectric constant of 3.41 ± 0.03 and dielectric loss of about 0.002–0.004. The successful preparation of PI fiber reinforced BADCy composite with low dielectric constant provides new ideas for material design and selection of lightweight high-strength structural-functional integrated composites.
