In the present work, different weight percentages (1, 3, and 5 wt%) of benzoxazine-functionalized graphene oxide (FGO) were reinforced with polybenzoxazine (PBZ) matrix by means of ring-opening polymerization. The resulting nanocomposites were characterized for their thermal, mechanical, dielectric, and optical properties using different analytical techniques. From the results of these studies, it was observed that the 5 wt% FGO-reinforced PBZ composite shows an improved glass transition temperature, thermal stability, and dielectric constant to the extent of 18%, 39%, and 197%, respectively, when compared with those of neat PBZ matrix. Furthermore, 5 wt% FGO-reinforced PBZ composite also exhibits an enhanced ultraviolet shielding efficiency (88%), with improved tensile strength (52%) compared with those of neat PBZ matrix. The enhanced properties may be due to homogeneous and uniform distribution of FGO into the PBZ matrix, which was confirmed from scanning electron microscopic and high-resolution transmission electron microscopic images. Data obtained from these studies indicate that the developed nanocomposites with high dielectric constant can be used in the form of coatings, sealants, and encapsulates for high-performance dielectric as well as antistatic applications.
