E-beam curing of epoxy based blends in order to produce high performance composites
2007
In this work, blends of a difunctional epoxy monomer and a thermoplastic toughening agent are E-beam irradiated at two different dose rates and two different total absorbed doses. The influence of the processing conditions on the thermal properties and on the morphology of the obtained matrices has been investigated. In particular, it is shown how the increase of the dose rate causes an increase of the temperature during irradiation, thus inducing a simultaneous thermal and radiation curing. On the contrary, at low-dose rate the system mainly undergoes to radiation curing, thus making the cured material very sensible to a post-irradiation thermal treatment with a significant improvement of …
Mechanism of the Oxidation of Sulfides by Dioxiranes. 1. Intermediacy of a 10-S-4 Hypervalent Sulfur Adduct
2002
Earlier studies established that dimethyldioxirane (1a) reacts with sulfides 2 in two consecutive concerted electrophilic oxygen-transfer steps to give first sulfoxides 3 and then sulfones 4. The same sequential electrophilic oxidation model was assumed for the reaction of sulfides 2 with the strongly electrophilic methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane (1b). In this paper we report on a systematic and general study on the mechanism of the reaction of simple sulfides 2 with DMDO (1a) and TFDO (1b) which provides clear evidence for the involvement of hypervalent sulfur species in the oxidation process. In the oxidation of sulfides 2a-c, diphenyl sulfide (2d), para-substituted aryl methyl sulfides …
Accelerated ageing due to moisture absorption of thermally cured epoxy resin/polyethersulphone blends. Thermal, mechanical and morphological behaviour
2011
Abstract A model epoxy resin/anhydride system, modified with a polyethersulfone (PES) engineering thermoplastic toughening agent, has been studied under hydrothermal ageing in order to investigate the modification of the thermal, morphological and mechanical behaviour through dynamical mechanical thermal analysis, SEM microscopy and fracture toughness test respectively. Two different concentrations of the toughening agent were used in the blends and two ageing conditions have been considered, consisting of the immersion of the samples in distilled water at constant temperature of 70 °C for 1 week and for 1 month. Dynamical mechanical thermal analysis results on hydrothermally aged materials…

The miscibility and phase behavior of ternary systems formed by a DGEBA based epoxy resin, polystyrene (PS), and diblock copolymers has been investigated through phase diagrams experimentally obtai...
Thermal properties of e-beam cured epoxy/thermoplastic matrices for advanced composite materials
2007
The aim of this work is to investigate the possibility to improve the thermal behaviour of epoxy based systems, cured by ionizing radiation, in order to produce matrices for advanced carbon fibres composites. Blends of two epoxy monomers, difunctional and trifunctional, have been polymerized by e-beam irradiation and the dynamic mechanical thermal properties have been investigated. The increase of the concentration of the trifunctional epoxy monomer in the blend causes a marked increase of the Tg, but strongly decreases the reactivity. Subsequently, blends of the same epoxy monomers with a high Tg thermoplastic toughening agent have been considered and their reactivity and the thermal prope…
Mode I fracture toughness behavior of hydro-thermally aged carbon fibre reinforced DGEBA-HHPA-PES systems
2012
In this work the Mode I fracture toughness behavior of unidirectional CFRP laminates is investigated by means of Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) tests. The composite samples were manufactured by thermal curing after impregnation of a Carbon fabric with a DGEBA epoxy and anhydride HHPA curing agent. One resin batch was also mixed with a PES thermoplastic monomer to enhance the matrix toughness. Two lots of samples, toughened and un-toughened, were then left to soak in hot water to achieve various degrees of aging. The influence of matrix toughening and hydrothermal aging on the delamination behavior of the composite have then been assessed and correlated with characterization data from Dynamic …

The title compound (aplyroseol-14), C22H34O4, exhibits a lactone-based structure that is novel for spongian-type diterpenoids. The structure, which features a six-membered lactone ring, was proposed by Arno, Gonzalez & Zaragoza [J. Org. Chem. (2003), 68, 1242–1251] on the basis of spectroscopic data and chemical correlations. This assignment has been confirmed, and it is shown that the molecule contains a trans–anti–trans 6/6/6 tricyclic hydrocarbon system and that the acetoxymethyl group lies in an equatorial position. Pairs of near-linear C—H⋯O interactions link molecules into extended chains.
Self-lubricating epoxide composites Kompozyty epoksydowe o właściwościach samosmarujących

A com. epoxy resin was modified by addn. of aliph. polyamine, graphite, a poly-α-olefin oil and phosphate fire retardant, cured at 130°C and studied for friction coeff. in contact with steel, heat resistance and mech. strength. The addn. of graphite resulted in a decrease in the resin hardness, impact strength and friction coeff.
The Durability of Composite Wood-Steel Systems
2010
Nell’ambito della valutazione e del controllo della qualità tecnologica in edilizia, la conoscenza del comportamento nel tempo dei prodotti e componenti complessi per l’edilizia, risulta aspetto fondamentale, in particolare per quei prodotti tecnologicamente “innovativi” per i quali la normativa non prevede ancora prove specifiche per valutarne la durabilità. In particolare, oggi risulta sempre più diffuso l’impiego di sistemi assemblati o con connessioni tra materiali di diversa natura, tra cui i sistemi legno-acciaio, ottenuti rinforzando le travi in legno lamellare con piastre in acciaio forate, incollati mediante una resina epossidica bicomponente. Tali sistemi, che sono stati già ogget…

The title diepoxyphenalene derivative, C17H18O6, comprises a fused cyclic system containing four five-membered rings (two dihydrofuran and two tetrahydrofuran) and one six-membered ring (cyclohexane). The five-membered dihydrofuran and tetrahydrofuran rings adopt envelope conformations, and the six-membered cyclohexane ring adopts a distorted chair conformation. Two methyl carboxylate groups occupy adjacent positions (2- and 3-) on a tetrahydrofuran ring. In the crystal, two pairs of C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form inversion dimers, enclosing two R-2(2)(6) ring motifs, that stack along the a-axis direction and are arranged in layers parallel …
