It is shown that there exist two competitive reactions : I, self polymerization of epoxy resin via chain growth and II, copolymerization of epoxy resin with PEG via step growth. At high concentration of the catalyst reaction I dominates and reaction II is negligible. On the contrary, at low concentration of the catalyst, reaction II dominates and block copolymers are formed In the intermediate case, the two reactions are comparable with the result that a gel structure is obtained.展开更多

It is found that there exists reversible structural transition in concentrated dispersions subjected to shearing. The viscosity oscillation correlated with high viscoelasticity at lower stress is remarkable in highly concentrated dispersions. There exists storage modules overshot at higher stress during the dynamic stress time ramp test. This could provide some information on dynamics of structure changes during shear action. Besides, the effects of solid content and temperature on the relationship between tangent delta and frequency are essentially different.展开更多
