In this study, we aimed to reduce the cure time, and to lower the cure temperature of the benzoxazine compound. Therefore, curing reaction of benzoxazine with bisoxazoline or epoxy resin using the latent curing agent and the properties of the cured resins were investigated. The cure behavior of benzoxazine with bisoxazoline or epoxy resin using the latent curing agent was monitored by differential scanning calorimetry and measurements for storage modulus (G'). The properties of the cured resin were estimated by mechanical properties, electrical insulation, water resistance, heat resistance, and flame resistance. As a result, it was confirmed that by using the latent curing agent, cure time of benzoxazine and bisoxazoline or epoxy resin was reduced, and cure temperature was lowered. And it was found that the curing reaction using phenol-novolac based benzoxazine (Na) as the benzoxazine compound could proceed more rapidly than that using bisphenol-A based benzoxazine (Ba) as the benzoxazine compound. However, the cured resins from Ba and bisoxazoline or epoxy resin using the latent curing agent showed good heat resistance, flame resistance, and mechanical properties compared with those from Na and bisoxazoline or epoxy resin using the latent curing agent.
