Interlaminar Toughening of GFRP—Part I: Bonding Improvement Through Diffusion and Precipitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A low concentrated polystyrene (PS) additive to epoxy is used, since it is able to reduce the curing reaction rate but not at the cost of increasing viscosity and decreasing glass transition temperature of the curing epoxy. ...
Interlaminar Toughening of GFRP—Part II: Characterization and Numerical Simulation of Curing Kinetics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Various methods of toughening the bonding between the interleaf and laminate glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) have been developed due to the increasing applications in industries. A polystyrene (PS) additive modified ...
