Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) can be added to polymers to prepare the organic/inorganic hybrid materials. Octaepoxysilsesquioxane (E-POSS) containing eight reactive epoxy groups in a molecule is one of the important POSSs. E-POSS was cured with methylnadic anhydride (MNA) in this study. The curing kinetics of the E-POSS/MNA system was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Two different kinds of methods, Kinssinger and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa, were used to calculate the activation energy and pre-exponential factor of the curing reaction.

Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) can be incorporated into polymers to obtain organic/inorganic hybrid materials. Octaepoxysilsesquioxane (E-POSS) with eight reactive epoxy groups per molecule is an important kind of POSS. E-POSS was cured with 4,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone diamine (DDS) in this study. The curing kinetics of the E-POSS/DDS system was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Kinssinger and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa methods were used to obtain the activation energy and pre-exponential factor of the curing reaction.

Curing kinetics of MEP-15/593 system and MEP-15/593/660 system is studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Curing kinetic parameters are evaluated and the relationship between diluent 660 and the curing properties is investigated. The results show that the diluent 660 can not only reduce viscosity and activation energy, but also improve the degree of cure and conversion ratio.

A multifunctional benzoxazine monomer (BZCN) was synthesized, which has several outstanding properties, such as high thermal stability and high glass transition. To better understand the curing kinetics of BZCN, isothermal differential scanning calorimetry measurements were used to determine the kinetic parameters and the kinetic models of the curing processes of benzoxazine monomer with cyano functionality. The result shows the mechanism of the curing reaction of BZCN exhibits autocatalytic model, but doesn’t meet nth-order model. Owing to the effects of catalysis of cyano functionality, the activation energy is 89.65KJ•mol-1and the total order of reaction is 1.84, which is quite different from that of normal benzoxazine. The theoretical calculations matched reasonably well with the experimental results.

A new epoxy resin based on dichlorosilane and 9,9-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) fluorene was synthesized to produce a highly heat-resistant network. The chemical structure was characterized with FTIR spectroscopy and 1H-NMR. 4-4′-Diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS) was used as the curing agent. The curing kinetics of different epoxy/DDS systems were investigated using non-isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that the values of activation energy (E) were affected by the chemical structure of epoxy resin, and BPEBF exhibited lower curing reactivity towards DDS compared to E-51.

Octaepoxysilsesquioxane (POSS-Ep), a kind of functional polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) was cured with 4,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone diamine (DDS) in this study. Possessing epoxy groups, it can be cured thermally with certain curing agents including amines. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to determine the curing techniques of the POSS-Ep/DDS resin system in this study. The appropriate curing technique for this resin is set as: 130°C/2h+ 160°C/2h+200°C/2h.

Abstract The thermal decomposition of magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxides (LDHs) was investigated by thermogravimetry analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) methods in argon environment. The influence of heating rates (including 2.5, 5, 10, 15 and 20K/min) on the thermal behavior of LDHs was revealed. By the methods of Kissinger and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa, the thermal kinetic parameters of activation energy and pre-exponential factor for the exothermic processes under non-isothermal conditions were calculated using the analysis of corresponding DSC curves.

The temperature and duration of β1→α+β2 transformation of Ti-6Al-4V alloy in cooling process were measured by differential scanning calorimetry, and transformation activation energy and Avrami exponent of β1→α+β2 were also calculated. The results show that the cooling rate is in the range of 在5~20°C/min, the transformation temperature and the transformation duration β1→α+β2 transformation of Ti-6Al-4V alloy decreased with the increasing cooling rate, its transformation activation energy decreased with the increasing phase transformation volume fraction, and Avrami exponent was between 1 and 2 at 660°C.

The nanocrystallization kinetics of the Fe81Si3.5B13.5C2amorphous alloy was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The apparent activation energy Ea, as well as the nucleation and growth kinetic parameters has been calculated by Kissinger and Ozawa methods. The changeable activation energy Eawith crystalline fraction α was obtained by the expended Friedman method without assuming the kinetic model function, and the average value of Eawas 364±20 kJ/mol. It was shown that the crystallization mechanism of initial stage (0<α<0.7) of the transformation was bulk crystallization with two and three dimensional nucleation graining growth which was controlled by diffusion. For the middle stage (0.7<α<0.9), the crystallization mechanism is surface crystallization with one dimensional nucleation graining growth at a near-zero nucleation rate. In the final stage(α>0.9),the local Avrami exponents rose anomalously from 1.4 to about 2.0.
