Defining B-Stage and Total Cure for a Dicy Based Epoxy Resin by DSC

Bernd K. Appelt; Pamela J. Cook

The curing reaction of a DICY-based epoxy resin was characterized by DSC. The epoxy resin was composed of a mixture of brominated bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether and of epoxidized cresol novolak with dicyandiamide (DICY) as hardener and tetramethyl butane diamine (TMBDA) as catalyst. The optimum ratio of epoxy/ DICY in terms of the glass transition temperature (Tg) was determined to be about 8:1. It could be shown that the heat of reaction (ΔH) at B-stage is strongly dependent on the amount of unreacted DICY. It was observed that for the optimum formulation, Tg increased linearly with conversion (orΔH) Up to 95% conversion. On the other hand, TMBDA did not affect Tg of the fully cured resin, although it accelerated the cure rate substantially.
