A. Cherdoudchihani et al., STUDY ON CROSS-LINKING OF BISPHENOL-A DIG LYCIDYL ETHER AND POLY(MALEIC ANHYDRIDE-STYRENE) BY ISOTHERMAL DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY, European Polymer Journal, 33(9), 1997, pp. 1415-1422
We have carried out the kinetic study of the crosslinking between expo
xy resin (DGEBA) and maleic anhydrid-styrene copolymer (AMS), through
the DSC technique with an isotherm mode at different temperatures. The
reaction is accelerated by the tertiary amine (TEA). The amine is use
d at different % (0, 2, 7, 10 and 15%). The kinetic model of Kamal and
Sourour has been used to determine the kinetic factors. The global or
der is equal to 2. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
