Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that spent sulfite liquors with a low content of ammonium, sodium or calcium lignosulfonate can be use das reagents in different macromolecular syntheses, as modified phenol-for maldehyde, epoxy and polyurethane resins. This paper deals with the co mparative properties of the binary blends (epoxy resins/lignin-epoxy r esins) obtained in different reaction conditions and using various har dening agents. Crosslinked (cured) epoxy resins/lignin-epoxy resins wi th improved physical, mechanical and dielectric properties can be obta ined only by modifying the hardening time, the fillers and the hardeni ng agents. The advanced crosslinking reactions and the final tridimens ional structure of the binary blends (epoxy resins/lignin-epoxy resins ) have been demonstrated by the decrease in the content of free polar groups total insolubility in common solvents, improved mechanical and dielectric properties and electron microscopy images.
