Abstract
Designing heat-resistant thermosets with excellent comprehensive performance has been a long-standing challenge. Co-curing of various high-performance thermosets is an effective strategy, however, the traditional trial-and-error experiments have long research cycles for discovering new materials. Herein, a two-step machine learning (ML) assisted approach is proposed to design heat-resistant co-cured resins composed of polyimide (PI) and silicon-containing arylacetylene (PSA), that is, poly(silicon-alkyne imide) (PSI). First, two ML prediction models are established to evaluate the processability of PIs and their compatibility with PSA. Then, another two ML models are developed to predict the thermal decomposition temperature and flexural strength of the co-cured PSI resins. The optimal molecular structures and compositions of PSI resins are high-throughput screened. The screened PSI resins are experimentally verified to exhibit enhanced heat resistance, toughness, and processability. The research framework established in this work can be generalized to the rational design of other advanced multi-component polymeric materials.

Abstract
Structural adhesion at high temperature has been a challenge for organic adhesives, and the commercially available adhesives that can work at a temperature above 150 °C is rather limited. Herein, two novel polymers were designed and synthesized via facile strategy, which involves polymerization between melamine (M) and M-Xylylenediamine (X), as well as copolymerization of MX and urea (U). With well-balanced rigid-flexible structures, the obtained MX and MXU resins were proved to be outstanding structural adhesives at a wide range temperature of -196~200 °C. They provided room-temperature bonding strength of 13~27 MPa for various substrates, steel bonding strength of 17~18 MPa at cryogenic temperature (-196 °C), and 15~17 MPa at 150 °C. Remarkably, high bonding strength of 10~11 MPa was retained even at 200 °C. Such superior performances were attributed to a high content of aromatic units, which leads to high glass transition temperature (Tg) up to ~179 °C, as well as the structural flexibility endowed by the dispersed rotatable methylene linkages.

Abstract
A matrix resin poly(silicon-containing arylacetylene vinyl)s (PSAV) containing vinyl at both branch and terminal chains underwent synthesis via the zinc powder catalytic method using m-diacetylene benzene and dichloromethylvinylsilane as raw materials. Vinyl in the PSAV resin was crosslinked by the free radical initiator dibenzoyl peroxide to obtain a crosslinked network structure resin (PSAV-L). This approach sought to improve the thermal properties and other related properties of the matrix resin. A series of tests, such as rotated rheometer, FTIR, DSC, TGA, Py-GC-MS and universal testing machine, characterised processing property, curing behaviour, thermal properties and mechanical properties. The rheological curve shows that PSAV-L resin has a wide processing window (40–134.5°C), endowing the resin with excellent processing performance. Thermal curing behaviour indicates that PSAV-L resin can start curing at a lower temperature, namely, 32°C earlier than PSAV resin. TGA analysis shows that the degradation temperature at 5% weight loss (Td5) of PSAV-L resin stands at 579.4°C, 45.4°C higher than that of PSAV resin due to the fact that the crosslinking of vinyl gives PSAV-L resin a network structure. The flexural strength, flexural modulus and ILSS of the quartz fibre cloth reinforced PSAV-L resin composite (QF/PSAV-L) are 184.68 MPa, 15.50 GPa and 12.40 MPa. The PSAV-L resin exhibits the comprehensive properties of good processing performance, low curing temperature, excellent thermal performance and high mechanical properties.

Abstract
A kind of modified bismaleimide resin, with good processability, heat resistance, and impact strength was developed, using 4,4′-dipropargyloxydiphenyl ether (DPEDPE), N-(4-propargyloxyphenyl)maleimide (4-PPM), and 3-ethynylphenyl maleimide (3-EPM) as modifiers. The DPEDPE, 4-PPM, and 3-EPM were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and used to modify the N,N′-(4,4′-diphenylmethane)bismaleimide (BDM)/2,2′-diallyl bisphenol A (DABPA) resin system (BD) to obtain the different blend resin systems of DPEDPE-modified BD (BDD), 4-PPM-modified BD (BDP), and 3-EPM-modified BD (BDE). The curing temperature of BD resin increases with increase of the alkynyl-terminated modifier content. The processability of BD resin was improved with addition of the propargyloxy-terminated compounds. The temperature of 5% weight loss, residual yield at 800°C and glass transition temperature of the cured BD resin increase with increase of the alkynyl-terminated modifier content and can reach 443°C, 46.7% and higher than 380°C. The tensile strength of the cured BD resin decreases with increase of alkynyl-terminated modifier content. The impact strength of the cured BD resin increases with increase of the propargyloxy-terminated compound content and can increase by 65%. The tensile strength, elastic modulus, and impact strength of the cured BD resin blended with DPEDPE can be 73.7 MPa, 4.1 GPa, and 19.6 kJ m−2, respectively. Moreover, the cured BD resin blended with DPEDPE has good water absorption resistance.
