Abstract

The kinetics of the cure reaction of standard unsaturated polyester resin was investigated by utilizing the isothermal and dynamic techniques of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The kinetic parameters and heat of the copolymerization reaction were determined. A method is proposed for optimization of the curing and postcuring of a polyester resin composite.

Zusammenfassung

Die Kinetik der Aushärtung eines ungesättigten Standardpolyesterharzes wurde mittels isothermer und dynamischer DSC untersucht. Kinetische Parameter und die Reaktionswärmen der Kopolymerisation wurden bestimmt. Eine Methode zur Optimierung der Aushärtung und Nachhärtung von Polyesterharzverbundstoffen wird vorgeschlagen.

Резюме

С помощью изотермиче ской и динамической дифференциальной ск анирующей калориметрии исслед ована кинетика реакц ии вулканизации станда ртной ненасыщенной п олиэфирной резины. Определены те плоты и кинетические параметры реакции кополимериз ации. Предложен оптимальн ый метод отверждения и последующей вулкани зации полиэфирной резиновой смеси.
