DTA traces of epoxy resins and composites
Effect of fibers on the polymerization kinetics
Four CIBA epoxy composites. A, B, C and D, have been investigated with the aim of verifying the effects of the respective fibers upon polymerization rate.
The glass transition temperatures,T g, and thermal effects of polymerization,ΔH, have been determined for five epoxy adhesives of unknown composition. From the trendsΔH vs./t cure it has been possible to attain a phenomenological kinetic order of the polymerization rate at 100° through an iterative calculation procedure. For most of the investigated adhesives there are reasons (double peak of polymerization and doubleT g signal) to assume that they are graft copolymers.
