An investigation of mechanical behaviour of resin with varying parameters of curing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, mechanical behavior of polyester with varying parameters of curing were investigated. Binder content, accelerator content, temperature and time were ascertained as parameters during curing of polyester specimens. Three levels of each parameter were selected and taguchi techniques are implemented. It was observed that curing time and binder content influenced mechanical properties of resin while variation in temperature and accelerator content had not affected properties considerably.

Optimization of thermal curing cycle for a large epoxy model
Heat generation in an exothermic reaction during the curing process and low thermal conductivity of the epoxy resin produces high peak temperature and temperature gradients which result in internal and residual stresses, especially in large epoxy samples. In this paper, an optimization algorithm was developed and applied to predict the thermal cure cycle to minimize the temperature peak and the...
