Preparation and curing behavior of siloxane-containing epoxy resins

Curing and thermal behavior of epoxy resins of hexafluoro - bisphenol – A and bisphenol - A

This paper describes the synthesis and characterization of epoxy resins based on (hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphenol (EFN) and p,p’-isopropylidenebisphenol (EBN), respectively and 4, 4’(hexafluoroisopropylidene)dipthalic-imideamine (IMAM), a curing agent. The synthesized epoxy resins and IMAM curing agent were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (...

Cold-Curing Structural Epoxy Resins: Analysis of the Curing Reaction as a Function of Curing Time and Thickness

The curing reaction of a commercial cold-curing structural epoxy resin, specifically formulated for civil engineering applications, was analyzed by thermal analysis as a function of the curing time and the sample thickness. Original and remarkable results regarding the effects of curing time on the glass transition temperature and on the residual heat of reaction of the cold-cured epoxy were ob...

Study the curing behavior and mechanical properties of Pigmented UV curable epoxy acrylate monomers

The formulations contained different acrylate monomer with different structure and functionalities and TiO2, were applied to obtain pigmented acrylic films by UV exposure. The conversion and mechanical characteristic were correlated. The results showed that there is a significant interaction between pigment, reactive diluents’ type and mechanical properties of coatings. It seems that cured film...
