This study modified graphene oxide (GO) with hydrophilic octadecylamine (ODA) via covalent bonding to improve its dispersion in silicone-modified epoxy resin (SMER) coatings. The structural and physical properties of ODA-GO were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and contact angle tests. The ODA-GO composite materials were added to SMER coatings by physical mixing. FE-SEM, water absorption, and contact angle tests were used to evaluate the physical properties of the ODA-GO/SMER coatings, while salt spray, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) methods were used to test the anticorrosive performance of ODA-GO/SMER composite coatings on Q235 steel substrates. It was found that ODA was successfully grafted onto the surfaces of GO. The resulting ODA-GO material exhibited good hydrophobicity and dispersion in SMER coatings. The anticorrosive properties of the ODA-GO/SMER coatings were significantly improved due to the increased interfacial adhesion between the nanosheets and SMER, lengthening of the corrosive solution diffusion path, and increased cathodic peeling resistance. The 1 wt.% ODA-GO/SMER coating provided the best corrosion resistance than SMER coatings with other amounts of ODA-GO (including no addition). After immersion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for 28 days, the low-frequency end impedance value of the 1 wt.% ODA-GO/SMER coating remained high, at 6.2 × 108 Ω·cm2.

We synthesized PPG-terminated tetra-carbamates as a new toughening additive for epoxy thermosets through facile addition reaction of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) with poly(tetra-methylene glycols) (PTMG) and poly(propylene glycols) (PPG). The effects of prepared tetra-carbamates on the rheological behavior of neat epoxy resin were studied along with the various cured properties of their modified epoxy systems. Four carbamate groups (–NHCOO–) endow the prepared additives not only with good intramolecular interactions, but also with optimal intermolecular interactions with epoxy polymers. This results in the suitable miscibility of the additives with the epoxy matrix for the formation of the typical biphasic structure of microparticles dispersed in the epoxy matrix via polymerization-induced microphase separation. The impact strength and critical stress concentration factor (KIC) of cured modified epoxy systems with the additives are significantly higher than those of unmodified epoxy systems, without sacrificing the processability (Tg) and flexural strength. The toughening mechanism is understood as a synergism combination among the phase separation mechanism, the in situ homogeneous toughening mechanism, and the particle cavitation mechanism.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of different aqueous environments (i.e., demineralised, distilled and spring water) on the mechanical properties of a cold-cured bisphenolic epoxy resin modified with the addition of calcium carbonate filler, typically employed as structural adhesive. The parameters selected for the analysis have been; the kind of curing agent employed to cure the epoxy resin at ambient temperature (i.e., Mannich base and triethylenetetramine); the load of calcium carbonate added to liquid epoxy (i.e., from 1 to 3 g per 100 g of resin) and; the duration of the exposure to the different aging conditions (i.e., from 1 to 10 months). Cylindrical specimens of calcium carbonate-modified epoxy systems were tested in compression mode, before and after each of the aging regimes. The effect of the selected curing agents is very small, and they are both suitable for a cure at ambient temperature, on the unfilled epoxy on compressive maximum strength and strain at break; the choice of the hardener affects instead the compressive modulus. The CaCO3 amount was demonstrated to have a significant effect on the mechanical characteristics of un-aged epoxy systems, leading to growth in compressive modulus and maximum strength with reductions in strain at break. Generally speaking, the aging time noticeably affects the compressive properties of calcium carbonate-modified epoxies while almost negligible is the kind of water employed in each exposure regime. Notwithstanding the adverse effects of an aqueous environment on compressive mechanical properties of CaCO3-filled epoxies, these systems keep compressive modulus and maximum strength greater than, and close to, respectively, the same characteristics measured on unaged unfilled control epoxies, demonstrating the positive effect of the addition of this kind of filler to epoxy-based structural adhesives, especially with the addition of 2 and 3 g of CaCO3 per 100 g resin. The results obtained in this study demonstrated that it is possible to contrast the detrimental effects observed in cold-cured epoxy-based structural adhesives due to their aging in water upon the addition of limited amounts (particularly at 2 and 3 g per 100 g resin) of a cheap CaCO3 filler.

Epoxy resins have been presenting a lot of scientific and technical interests and organic modified epoxy resins have recently receiving a great deal of attention. For obtaining the composite materials with good mechanical proprieties, a large variety of organic modification agents were used. For this study gluten and gelatin had been used as modifying agents thinking that their dispersion inside the polymer could increase the polymer biocompatibility. Equal amounts of the proteins were milled together and the obtained compound was used to form 1 to 5% weight ratios organic agents modified epoxy materials. To highlight the effect of these proteins in epoxy matrix mechanical tests as three-point bending and compression were performed.

The tensile fracture mechanics and thermo-mechanical properties of mixtures composed of two kinds of epoxy resins of different chemical structures and functional groups were studied. The base resin was a bi-functional epoxy resin based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) and the other resins were (a) distilled triglycidylether of meta-amino phenol (b) 1, 6–naphthalene di epoxy and (c) fluorene di epoxy. This research shows that a small number of multifunctional epoxy systems, both di- and tri-functional, can significantly increase tensile strength (14%) over neat DGEBA while having no negative impact on other mechanical properties including glass transition temperature and elastic modulus. In fact, when compared to unmodified DGEBA, the tri-functional epoxy shows a slight increase (5%) in glass transition temperature at 10 wt.% concentration. The enhanced crosslinking of DGEBA (90 wt.%)/distilled triglycidylether of meta-amino phenol (10 wt.%) blends may be the possible reason for the improved glass transition. Finally, the influence of strain rate, temperature and moisture were investigated for both the neat DGEBA and the best performing modified system. The neat DGEBA was steadily outperformed by its modified counterpart in every condition.
