Abstract
Using scanning electron microscope (SEM), differential scanning calori metry (DSC) and time-resolved light scattering (TRLS) methods, the mor phology development of novel polyetherimide modified tetreglycidyl-4,4 '-diaminodiphenylmethane (TGDDM) epoxy resin was investigated. The pha se separation took place early in the blend and morphology was fixed i n the first 10 minutes of curing. Then, the diffusion of the epoxy and the polyetherimide molecules still existed till the final stage of cu ring.
