  • Online:2008-04-25 Published:2008-04-25

Abstract:

A low viscosity epoxy resin should be used in RTM,casting and filling.The system is prepared by modifying Bisphenol A epoxy.The viscosity,mechanical properties as well as thermal stability are characterized,which show that the prepared epoxy has long pot life at normal temperature.After cured at medium temperature,the mechanical properties and thermal stability are good.

Key words: low viscosity, epoxy resin, mechanical properties, glass transition temperature(Tg)
