The effects of peroxide initiator concentration on the structure and dielectric properties of a low loss PPO/TAIC composite system were studied. The results show that the increase in crosslinking leads to an increase in glass transition temperature and storage modulus, while the relationship between initiator concentration and dielectric loss is complex.
Although thermosetting polyphenylene oxide- (PPO) based composites with excellent dielectric properties have been widely accepted as superior resin matrices of high-performance copper clad laminate (CCL) for 5G network devices, there has been limited information regarding the composition-process-structure-property relationships of the systems. In this work, the effects of peroxide initiator concentration on the structure and dielectric properties of a free radical cured ultralow loss PPO/Triallyl isocyanate (TAIC) composite system were studied. As expected, the glass transition temperature (T-g) and storage modulus increased with the advancing of crosslinking, whereas the dielectric loss showed an abnormal rise with the increase in crosslink density. Extensive studies were carried out by varying the initiator contents and characterizing the structure with spectroscopy, thermal analysis, and positron annihilation lifetime spectrum (PALS) techniques. The results show that the competition of polarity, crosslink density, free volume, and free TAIC are the key factors determining the dielectric properties of the composites.
