Notizen:
Two commercial epoxy resins, MY750 and MY720, were cured over a range of cure temperatures with a series of novel curing agents based on modified imidazoles. A combination of techniques, including dynamic viscometry, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, high performance and gel permeation chromatography, were used to analyse the reaction mixture. It appears that for a given formulation and given resin, the viscosity behaviour near gelation is different for different cure temperatures and the mechanism appears to be dependent not only on the nature of the imidazole curing agent, but also on the cure temperature. Higher temperature cure appears to lead to the formation of a less ‘homogeneous’ reaction mixture at the gel point, containing oligomeric chain lengths of higher polydispersity, whereas in the lower temperature cure, oligomers of a smaller range of chain lengths are present.
