The kinetic properties of the Me methacrylate (MMA) polymn. at pilot scale for a given temp. range (130-170 Deg) were detd. by differential scanning calorimetry and batch expts. reflecting initiation by MMA peroxides, depropagation of the living chains as ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the dispersion polymerization of methyl methacrylate in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), using a poly(dimethylsiloxane) macromonomer (PDMS macromonomer) as stabilizer. Supercritical fluids (SCF) and SCF mixtures ...
A new procedure for the calculation of solubility parameter evolution during polymerisation has been developed for amine-cured epoxy systems, which allows quantitative thermodynamic modelling of chemically induced phase separation (CIPS). Solubility parame ...
The invention relates to a process for increasing the melt viscosities of polyester resins. This process comprises a step of heating the polyester resin in the temperature range comprised between the melting temperature of the polyester resin and the degra ...
The structural buildup during reticulation of thermoset systems containing reactive modifiers can strongly influence the final properties of such blends. This was studied by considering the rheological behavior during cure of an epoxy/amine thermoset syste ...
The crystallization kinetics of polyamide-12 has been investigated using a combination of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and hot-stage optical microscopy. The DSC data for isothermal crystallization were consistent with a simple two-parameter Avra ...
The thermoforming of thermoplastic sandwich structures based on the same matrix polymer for the face sheets and the core requires precise temperature control both before and during forming. Two opposing requirements must be satisfied: the face sheets must ...
The relative sequence of shrinkage and evolution of modulus of a thermoset resin during cure leads to the build-up of internal stresses, especially if the resin is constrained by the presence of other materials in the form of a substrate or reinforcing fib ...
The objective of this study was to investigate the behavior of highly functional acrylates, during isothermal ultraviolet (UV) curing. The materials included a pentafunctional acrylate and two acrylated hyperbranched polymers, one with a stiff polyester co ...
Two resin transfer moulding (RTM) processes have been examined for automotive body-in-white (BIW) structures. An epoxy system was compared with a novel reactive polyamide 12 (PA12) system via characterisation of reaction kinetics and the production of carb ...
