The epoxy resin was modified with the mixture of α,ω-dihydroxy poly-(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl) siloxane (PTFPMS), KH560 and stannous octoate. KH560 can react with PTFPMS and also epoxy resin curing agent. The two reactions were characterized by FI-IR. The modified epoxy resin was characterized by FI-IR. The result showed that fluorine-containing silicone had been successfully introduced into the epoxy system. The mechanical and thermal properties of the modified epoxy resin were analyzed. The results showed that with the increase of PTFPMS the impact strength of epoxy resin increased, hardness and bending strength correspondingly reduced, slight decrease in the glass transition temperature.

Polyurethane-modified epoxy resin was prepared with Polyurethane prepolymer(PUP). The effects of the PUP content and epoxy resin type on mechanical and thermal properties of materials were discussed. The results indicate that the tensile strength and impact strength of the material increase to maximum successively, and then decrease with the increasing addition of PUP. When the mass fraction of PUP was 15%, the tensile strength and the impact strength of materials were all the best. There were significant differences in mechanical and thermal properties of material for different epoxy, and the best results were cured epoxy TDE-85.

In order to modify the properties of the epoxy composites, an alkali catalyzed biphenyldiol formaldehyde resin (BPFR) was synthesized and used to cure epoxy resin (ER). γ-Glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane (KH-560) was used as a reinforcer of the composites. Laminates of the BPFR/ER fiberglass reinforced composites with different (KH-560) contents were prepared. The influence of the KH-560 content on the glass transition temperature (Tg) and thermal degradation properties of the composites was researched by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The mechanical, electrical properties of the composites were determined. The results showed that the interfacial bonding strength between resin matrix and fiberglass can be efficiently improved with the presence of KH-560. When the ratio of BPFR and ER is 3 : 7, the content of KH-560 is 5 ~7 wt%, the impact resistance of the fiberglass reinforced composites is 61.35~78.59 kJ/m2, the tensile resistance is 150.37~162.54 MPa, which are all 30 % higher than that of no added; The dielectric constant ε and dielectric loss tanδ of the composites is between 0.50~0.68 and between 0.008~0.01, respectively.

Metallic fibres in polymeric matrix are used for mouldings blocks of hybrid injection moulds improving the mechanical and thermal properties. This paper reports on the characterization of epoxy resin/short steel fibres (SSF) composites. The effect of the concentration of 2,4,6-tris (dimethylamino-methyl) phenol as accelerator in the epoxy system was evaluated by viscosity and dynamical mechanical analyses. The composites were characterized by compression and microhardness tests. The fibres dispersion into the epoxy matrix was analysed by optical microscopy. It was found that the best accelerator concentration for this type of composite was 5,0 parts by weight

Purpose This paper aims to evaluate the concentration effect of red mud waste filler on mechanical and thermal properties of amine functional aniline furfuraldehyde condensate (AFAFFC) modified epoxy composite along with the optimum result of modified epoxy. Design/methodology/approach For effective toughening, different compositions were made by adding various concentration of AFAFFC to epoxy. The concentration of 2, 5 and 10 parts per hundred parts of epoxy resin of aluminium silicate-based pristine red mud waste was incorporated into the each modified epoxy matrix. These filled modified matrixes were cured with ambient temperature curing agent triethylene tetramine and evaluated with respect to their impact, tensile and flexural strengths. The morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis. The thermal stability by thermogravimetric analysis was also reported. Findings The modification of epoxy resin using AFAFFC and filler showed significant enhancement of mechanical strength over unmodified epoxy. The increase depends on the concentration of the modifier and filler. The reason behind this is that in the initial stage of curing, the AFAFFC are miscible with the epoxy and form a homogeneous solution. This good mixing promotes the chemical reaction and network formation. During the curing process, as the molecular weight increases, the component separates with in the reaction medium to form a second dispersed phase. Research Limitations/implications The present paper discussed the effect of only one type of modifier, i.e. AFAFFC, and one filler, i.e. red mud waste filler effect. Besides these by changing the amine and aldehyde, other modifiers could be synthesised and the efficiency of modification of epoxy resin using these modifiers and other filler besides red mud waste such as paddy husk, bamboo dust, etc., could also be studied. Originality/value The present study regarding the concentration effect of modifier and filler was novel, and AFAFFC modified filled epoxy could be used in the field of coating, casting, adhesives, potting and encapsulation of semiconductor devices.
