Toughening of Epoxy Resin Modified with In Situ Polymerized Acrylate Copolymer

Article Preview

Abstract:

P(BA-St), a good modifier for epoxy resin, was prepared by BA and St in situ polymerization. The modified resin system was based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol and methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, tris (dimethylaminomethyl) phenol. The influence of the copolymer on mechanical properties and thermal performance of the systems was studied. When 15 wt% of the BA/St with a weight ratio composition of 7.5/7.5 was added to epoxy, high performance modified epoxy resin was obtained.
