Abstract: As a curing agent and modified agent of epoxy resin, modified polyphenylene ether (MPPE) containing hydroxyl group was synthesized, and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The properties of MPPE/E51 were investigated, and the following results were obtained. The curing temperature is gradually decreased with the increase of content of E51. Thermal stability of the epoxy resin thermosets is improved with the maximum Td5% being 385 °C. The laminated sheet of MPPE/E51 has low dielectric constant (3.51, 1 GHz), dielectric loss (0.008 9, 1 GHz) and low water absorption. Impact strength of MPPE/E51 is up to 63.34 kJ/m2.

Key words: dielectric property, epoxy resin, polyphenylene ether (PPE)
