Cyanate ester (CE) resin was modified in a multi-component way using the technology of conjugated tri-component interpenetrating polymer networks (CTC-IPN). Experimental results showed that the three components in the modified composite existed undependably and they interweaved irregularly in the structure of IPN to form a unique supermolecule structure. The analysis by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) indicated that the Tg of the modified CE was increased by 22 °C, compared with the Tg prior to modification. When the amount of an initiator was 0.3% or 0.4% and concurrently the ratio of PST/PMMA/CE was 15/15/85, the flexural strength and the impact strength reached the maximum values. Compared with those of pure CE, the flexural strength was increased by 22.65% and the impact strength by 94.99%, respectively
