Epoxy Kinetics Condensation Reaction

Following is the polymerization procedure of a cured epoxy resin, Bisphenol-A diglycidylether, with polyamines. Record the time of this experiment. Note Some NMR spectrometers may have kinetics experiments as macros.

Infrared spectroscopy. Due to experimental difficulties, infrared spectroscopy is used infrequently in these kinetic studies. However, continuous measurements have been carried out by Fellers in the case of polyacid-epoxy condensation reaction for gel point determination. 

Thus, the stated above results have demonstrated that both scaling Eq. (86) of Chapter 1 and fractal Eq. (27) of Chapter 1 (or Eq. (61) of Chapter 2) describe well to an equal extent haloid-containing epoxy polymer 2DPP+HCE/DDM curing reaction kinetics at different curing temperatures. In virtue of this circumstance there exists intercoimection between parameters included into the indicated equations. The fractal Eq. (61) of Chapter 2 introduces in the kinetics problem consideration reaction products structure (in the given case structure of microgels and condensed state after gel formation point), characterized by its fractal dimension D, that makes this conception physically more informative [34].
