High-molecular-weight (HMW) benzoxazines were synthesized by Mannich condensation with various combinations of bisphenols and diamines, and the mechanical and thermal properties of the polybenzoxazines derived from the HMW benzoxazines were measured by tensile tests and thermogravimetric analysis to investigate the structure-property relationship. Among the polybenzoxazines presented in this work, the PODP-oda film derived from 4,4′-oxydiphenol and 4,4′-oxydianiline showed remarkably good mechanical properties (E = 3.7 GPa, sb = 125 MPa, and eb = 4.5%) and thermal stability (Td5 = 332 °C).
