Attempts to enhance the properties of EPON 830-4,4 '-Methylene Bis Cyclohexylamine epoxy resin systems by exposing them to 0.1290 to 0.8810 tesla magnetic fields while thermally curing them
This effort determined if enhancements to the properties of fully cured EPON 830-4,4'-Methylene Bis Cyclohexylamine epoxy resin systems (ERSs) could be induced by thermally curing them, while also simultaneously exposing them to economically generated magnetic fields (MFs). Stoichiometric mixes were cured for 5 hours at 121 degrees C while being exposed to MFs between 0.1290 and 0.8810 Tesla. Exposed and control specimens were simultaneously cast from the same mix in each run. The resulting specimens were mechanically and thermally tested to find any property differences. This effort: determined that under these conditions there were no modifications to the properties of MF exposed, fully thermally cured, ERSs relative to their controls.
