Cyanate ester (CE) resins are important polymeric materials with excellent dielectric properties, low moisture absorption, and good heat resistance, which have shown great superiority for use in electronic and aerospace industries. In this article, a novel CE resin was designed and synthesized from divinylbenzene. The proposed structures were characterized with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, and mass spectrometry. The chemical reaction activity, heat resistance, dielectric properties, and water adsorption of the synthesized CE derived from divinylbenzene (DVBCy) were examined and compared with the traditional bisphenol A and bisphenol M (4,4′-[1,3-phenylenebis(1-methyl-ethylidene)]bisphenol)-based CE. The DVBCy resin exhibits a glass transition temperature ( T g) of 162.7°C, a dielectric constant of 2.61, a dielectric loss tangent angle of 0.0035 at about 10 GHz, and a lower water absorption of 0.77%. Compared with the bisphenol M type CE, DVBCy resin provides slightly superior dielectric properties, higher mechanical properties, more favorable process technology for prepreg construction, and lower costing. The DVBCy blend resin modified with bisphenol A-based CE and core–shell particles possesses suitable rheological properties, and the corresponding quartz fiber-reinforced composite exhibits excellent mechanical as well as dielectric properties.

Abstract Tires are fabricated using single ply fiber reinforced composite materials, which consist of a set of aligned stiff fibers of steel material embedded in a softer matrix of rubber material. The main goal is to develop a mathematical model to determine the local stress and strain fields for this isotropic fiber and matrix separated by a linearly graded transition zone. This model will then yield expressions for the internal stress and strain fields surrounding a single fiber. The fields will be obtained when radial, axial, and shear loads are applied. The composite is then homogenized to determine its effective mechanical properties—elastic moduli, Poisson ratios, and shear moduli. The model allows for analysis of how composites interact in order to design composites which gain full advantage of their properties.
