Abstract:

In this paper, the RTM epoxy system had been synthesized by modifying Bisphenol A epoxy

and adding a kind of amine curing agent. The effect of curing agent content on the performance of

epoxy system were studied by DMA and mechanical testing machine. The results showed that, the glass

transition temperature was low whenever curing agent content was higher or lower,but when the ratio

of epoxy and curing agent was 100∶31, the maximum glass transition temperature of the system was

about 92.4℃, and the mechanical properties of the system were good.

Key words: RTM, epoxy resin, curing agent content , curing performance
