Description:
This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 008,562, filed Feb. 1, 1979, now abandoned. 
    
    
     The present invention relates to heat-resistant compositions. 
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     Said compositions find an extensive use in various industries. Thus, these are useful in mechanical engineering, manufacture of instruments, electrical engineering and electronics, aircraft industry, manufacture of tools, space technology, nuclear industry. 
     On the basis of such compositions various materials are produced, namely: moulding materials, compounds, adhesives, glass-, carbon- and boron-plastics, foamed materials. 
     Principal requirements imposed by modern technology on such materials reside in that these materials should retain, for rather long periods, their physico-mechanical properties (bending strength, compression strength, tensile strength, shape-stability and the like) and dielectric properties (volume resistivity and surface resistivity, break-down voltage and the like) at temperatures of the order of 300° C. and above. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Known in the art are a great number of materials on the basis of compositions incorporating heat-resistant heterocyclic polymers. 
     However, in the preparation of such materials use is made of only final polymers. The starting monomers cannot be directly employed for the production of said materials, since during polymerization thereof certain by-products are formed (such as H 2  O, CO 2 , NH 3 ) which result in substantially impaired properties of the final materials. For this reason, for the purpose of attaining the best properties of the materials, first effected is the process of preparation of a polymer involving stages of synthesis, recovery and purification of the polymer, followed by processing of the thus-prepared polymer to a corresponding material. Said additional stages (i.e. synthesis, recovery and purification of the polymer) substantially complicate the process of manufacture of the final materials and render their manufacture more expensive; it is also necessary to have additional production areas. The process of treatment of the final heterocyclic polymers is accompanied by certain difficulties. While ensuring a high thermal and thermo-oxidative stability of polymeric chains, the aromatic nature of these polymers at the same time defines strong intermolecular effects. For this reason, in the case of heat-resistant heterocyclic polymers softening temperatures and, hence, temperatures of processing said polymers to final articles frequently approach destruction temperatures, i.e. within the range of from 350° to 400°  C. At the same time, said difficulties may be overcome by the use of the starting reagents which react without liberation of any by-products. This enables elimination of said stages of synthesis, recovery and purification of polymers as separate technological processes, since the formation of a polymeric structure may occur simultaneously with the process of manufacture of the final material. Since the starting reagents feature a higher mobility than macromolecules based thereon and taking into account the fact that the process of formation of a heterocyclic polymeric structure is substantially completed at temperatures of less than 300° C., the process of manufacture of the final articles in this case may be also performed at temperatures of below 300° C. Reagents possessing such properties are bis-ortho-aminonitriles and bis-ortho-hydroxynitriles which, upon reaction with polyfunctional isocyanates, form heat-resistant polymers of a heterocyclic structure corresponding to the formulae: ##STR2## respectively, wherein R is selected from the group consisting of: ##STR3## wherein R 2  is selected from the group consisting of an alkylene radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms. ##STR4## wherein R 3  and R 4  are selected from the group involving an alkyl radical containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms and an aryl radical; R&#39; is selected from the group consisting of an alkylene radical containing 2 to 40 carbon atoms, ##STR5## wherein R 5  is an alkyl radical containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms R 6  is an alkylene radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, ##STR6## wherein R 7  and R 8  are selected from the group consisting of an alkyl radical containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms and an aryl radical (cf. U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,657,186 and 3,674,749). The interaction of bis-ortho-aminonitriles and bis-ortho-hydroxynitriles with polyfunctional isocyanates is effected at a temperature within the range of from 150° to 300° C. over a period of from 1 hour to 24 hours. 
     However, as it has been demonstrated by appropriate tests, the materials produced directly from the above-mentioned reagents feature a high brittleness. During a lasting residence in the air at temperatures of about 300° C. and over a substantial decrease in mechanical strength of said materials is observed, crasks are formed which frequently cause a complete break-down of the final materials. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     It is an object of the present invention to provide such a heat-resistant composition which would possess a sufficient thermal stability and retain high physical properties at temperatures of about 300° C. and over. 
     This and other objects are accomplished by that in a heat-resistant composition containing an organic or elemento-organic binder and/or a filler, in accordance with the present invention as the binder use is made of at least one compound of the formula: ##STR7## wherein R is an organic radical with a number of carbon atoms of from 2 to 1,000; a radical with a number of carbon atoms of from 2 to 1,000 containing 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of silicon and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of fluorine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of chlorine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of bromine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of nitrogen, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of sulphur, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of phosphorus, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of boron, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of oxygen, 
     X and Y are --NH 2 , --OH, --SH, --NCO, --NCS, and X and Y being the same or different; Z is --C.tbd.N, --C.tbd.CH, Z being located in the same or different positions selected from alpha-, beta-, ortho- and peri-positions relative to X and Y; n≧1, m≧1, p≧1; the components being present in the following proportions, parts by weight: 
     
         ______________________________________  binder      100  filler      0.1 to 10,000.______________________________________ 
    
     The composition may incorporate both an individual compound of the formula: ##STR8## and a mixture of compounds corresponding to this formula. 
     To improve processability and, in certain cases, enhance physico-mechanical properties of the composition, it is advisable to introduce, into the composition, 1 to 99 parts by weight of at least one of compounds of the formula: R--P q  wherein R is an organic radical with a number of carbon atoms of from 2 to 1,000; a radical with a number of carbon atoms of from 2 to 1,000 containing 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of silicon and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of fluorine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of chlorine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of bromine, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of nitrogen, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of sulphur, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of phosphorus, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of boron, and/or 
     1 to 1,000 atoms of oxygen; 
     P is ##STR9## 
     With the view to improve physico-mechanical properties of a heat-resistant composition, it is advisable to incorporate thereinto 8 to 180 parts by weight of at least one of the following compounds: polybenzoxazole, polyimide, polyphenylquinoxaline, polyphenylenesulphide, polybenzimidazole, polyoxadiazole, polytriazine. 
     As the fillers, the composition may include, e.g. various fibrous fillers (including tissues, ribbons, staple fibres), finely-divided powder-like fillers (such as molybdenum bisulphide, titanium dioxide, graphite, quartz flour, copper, cobalt, nickel, lead, tungsten, colloidal silver, colloidal iron). 
     Furthermore, various purpose additives may be added into the composition such as stabilizing agents, catalysts, foaming agents, plastifiers, antifriction agents. 
     Tests performed with a heat-resistant composition according to the present invention show that the use of this composition makes it possible to obtain a wide range of various materials featuring a lasting stability of physical properties during operation at temperatures of about 300° C. and above. Thus, a compression-moulding material based on 3,3&#39;-diamino-4,4&#39;-dicyandiphenyloxide (50 parts by weight), 4,4&#39;-diphenylmethanediisocyanate (50 parts by weight), graphite (20 parts by weight) and a powder-like poly-1,3,4-oxadiazole (250 parts by weight); obtained on the basis of 4,4&#39;-diphenylphthaliddicarboxylic acid and dihydrazide of isophthalic acid) moulded under the pressure of 250 kg/cm 2  with residence time of one hour at the temperature of 130° C., one hour at the temperature of 170° C. and one hour at the temperature 200° C., followed by heat-treatment at 300° C. for 30 minutes without pressure, has a compression strength at the temperature of 300° C. equal to 980 kg/cm 2  in the starting condition and 1,100 kg/cm 2  after thermal ageing in the air at the temperature of 300° C. after 500 hours. At the same time, a compression-moulding material on the basis of 3,3&#39;-diamino-4,4&#39;-dicyandiphenyloxide (50 parts by weight) and 4,4&#39;-diphenylmethanediisocyanate (50 parts by weight) containing no filler has a compression strength at 300° C. of 1,050 kg/cm 2  in the starting condition and 650 kg/cm 2  after thermal ageing in the air at the temperature of 300° C. for 500 hours which shows a substantially lower stability against a high-temperature effect. Furthermore, the material without a filler has a substantially higher brittleness which is manifested in its reduced impact resistance. During thermal agening of such material, microcracks are formed therein thus causing a complete deterioration of this material. On the whole, the use of the composition according to the present invention makes it possible to attain such a combination of properties which is lacking in any other prior art composition known hitherto: high thermal stability, high heat-resistance, increased physico-mechanical and dielectric properties of the final materials with such good technological characteristics of the composition according to the present invention as the absence of solvents, low viscosity, capability of formation of highly-extended systems, moderate temperatures (at most 300° C.) and pressures (at most 500 kg/cm 2 ) of processing. 
     The composition according to the present invention is characterized by physico-mechanical properties of compression moulding materials (compression strength and bending strength) and adhesive joints (shear stress) at temperatures of 20° C., 300° C., 350° C., 400° C. as well as by abrasion-resistance of grinding wheels produced with the use of the heat-resistant composition according to the present invention. 
     The composition according to the present invention may be used for the manufacture, by conventional processes, of various materials such as textolites, moulding materials, abrasion instruments, coatings, adhesive joints, foamed materials. Such materials retain their physico-mechanical and dielectric properties at a temperature within the range of from 300° to 400° C. and above. 
     The use of such compositions makes it possible to combine the process of synthesis of a polymer with the process of manufacture of an article from this polymer, while eliminating the stages of recovery and purification of the polymer. Furthermore, the presence, in the composition, of monomeric and/or oligomeric compounds makes it possible to perform the process of manufacture of articles at moderate temperatures and pressures. 
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     Process technology of the preparation of the composition according to the present invention is not complicated. The composition ingredients may be mixed directly in a required ratio. In certain cases it is preferable to preliminary maintain the mixture of ingredients of the binder at a temperature within the range of from 20° to 180° C. over a period of from 0.5 to 50 hours. The thus-produced adduct (addition product) ensures a reduced shrinkage during the manufacture of articles and higher physico-mechanical characteristics.

     EXAMPLE 44 
     3.5 g of a powder-like diamond with the fineness of below 50 mc are mixed with 0.6 g of a compound of the formula; ##STR345## 0.8 g of a compound of the formula: ##STR346## and 20 g of a powder-like copper. The composition is placed into a mould, heated to the temperature of 120° C. without pressure, to 210° C. under the pressure of 500 kg/cm 2  and maintained at the temperature of 210° C. under the pressure of 560 kg/cm 2  for 0.5 hour. Properties of the thus-produced abrasive wheel are shown in Table 4 hereinbelow. 
     EXAMPLES 45-77 
     In acccordance with the procedure of Example 62 abrasive tools are made from different composition. Composition ingredients and conditions of curing thereof are shown in Table 7. Data illustrating abrasion-resistance of the abrasive tool made of the composition are shown in Table 8 hereinbelow. 
     The abrasive tool made of the composition according to the present invention is a multi-purpose one, since it makes possible to process both steels and superhard materials such as cubic boron nitride. The thus-manufactured tool has an increased abrasion-resistance and retains it upon operation under severe conditions, i.e. without cooling and high feed rates of the abrasive tool. This tool may be employed in various applications: mechanical engineering, aircraft industry, glass and jewelry production.
