The introduction of dynamic bonds into insulating epoxy systems to prepare dynamic insulating epoxy (DIE) offers a promising solution for the green and sustainable development of electrical equipment. However
the tendency of DIE to creep over extended service periods compromises their structural integrity and stability
posing significant risks for high-safety electrical applications. To overcome this limitation
we proposed a strategy to enhance the glass transition temperature (Tg) of DIE by incorporating N-containing trifunctional epoxy resins into bifunctional bisphenol A epoxy. Tg was enhanced with the increasing of trifunctional epoxy content
significantly improving stability under service conditions. Additionally
transesterification catalyzed by 1
5
7-Triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) and the self-catalytic properties of tertiary amines in the trifunctional epoxy facilitate topological rearrangement at elevated temperatures
maintaining good reprocessability. This approach effectively balances creep resistance and processability
offering a viable solution for practical applications in electrical insulation. Moreover
the proposed method can be extended to other dynamic polymer systems
