Unsaturated polyester resins cure: Kinetic, rheologic, and mechanical dynamical analysis. II. The glass transition in the mechanical dynamical spectrum of polyester networks
Unsaturated polyester networks with various structures built from an orthophtalic polyester, With methyl ethyl ketone peroxide as an initiator and cobalt octoate as a promoter, were studied with dynamic mechanical thermal analysis from -50 to 200 degreesC to characterize changes in the mechanical properties as a function of the temperature. From these measurements, the glass-transition temperatures of the different networks were determined, their dependence on conversion being fitted to an equation related to the Couchman and DiBenedetto equations. Finally, the different transitions were analyzed as a function of the cure conditions. (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
