Abstract

Results are given for the mechanical, thermal and flammability properties of polyisocyanurate resins obtained from hexamethylene diisocyanate by bis-(tributyltin)-oxide catalysis. It is shown that the mechanical properties of the isocyanurate resins and of their glass fibre-reinforced composites are comparable with those of commercial epoxy and polyester resins. The thermal stability and the flame retardance of the isocyanurate resins are far better than of epoxies or polyesters.
